This message evaluates the Resourceprep profile of stringprep in accordance with the template established by the PRECIS WG: http://trac.tools.ietf.org/wg/precis/trac/wiki/StringprepReviewTemplate ### Specification: RFC 3920 Brief Description: - Resourcepart of JabberID ("JID"), as in: <localpart@domainpart/resourcepart> - Typically free-form text How It's Used: - Device / session names (e.g., stpeter@jabber.org/Home) - Nicknames (e.g., precis@jabber.ietf.org/StPeter) Who Generates It: - Often human users via an XMPP client - Often generated in an automated fashion by client or server User Input Methods: - Typed by user - Copy-and-paste - Perhaps voice input Enforcement: - Rules enforced by server / add-on service (e.g., chatroom service) on account login, joining a chatroom, etc. Comparison Method: "Type 1" (byte-for-byte) (see http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-precis-problem-statement ) Case Folding, Sensitivity, Preservation: - Strings are never folded - Case is preserved Impact of Comparison: False positives: - interact with wrong device (e.g., for file transfer or voice call) - interact with wrong chatroom participant - improperly grant privileges (e.g., chatroom moderator) - allow communication with blocked entity False negatives: - unable to choose desired chatroom nick - unable to use granted privileges (e.g., chatroom moderator) - disallow communication with unblocked entity Normalization: NFKC Mapping: Spaces are mapped to nothing Disallowed Characters: None String Classes: - Basically a free-form identifier Internal Structure: None User Output: - text of message (e.g., in a chatroom) - device names often not exposed to human users Operations: - Sometimes concatenated with other data and then used as input to a cryptographic hash function ###
