Hi everyone,
this is just to inform you that we intend to remove support for XMPP (Jabber) notifications from NAV's alert engine for the upcoming feature release.
XMPP support is implemented through the `xmpppy` library, which seems to be unmaintained, and is not compatible with Python 3. As we no longer have customers who rely on NAV notifications via XMPP, we will no longer put resources into supporting it, and will be removing it as part of NAV's transition to Python 3.
If you are someone who actually depends on XMPP notifications from your NAV, I would urge you to consider contributing a replacement implementation.
The only Python-based XMPP implementation currently listed on https://xmpp.org/ seems to be this one: https://lab.louiz.org/poezio/slixmpp
The still-open pull request that removes the current implementation can be seen here: https://github.com/Uninett/nav/pull/1889
