Transferring all multiformats to this organization

[RichardLitt]

What

We need to move all multiformats to this organization.

*This list can be edited. Please check off or mark as irrelevant any repositories. *

List

There are a wide variety of multiformats. These are the main ones:

• multiaddr
• mulithash
• multikey
• multicodec
• multistream
• multibase

I am not sure that these exist, but I found them referenced in various places:

• multispecs
• multi-multiplexing (multimux?) - See multi-multiplexing; implementation question ipfs/specs#33
• multitransport
• multiplex - See https://github.com/ipfs/ipfs/blob/252d3f2a05995adb944707951f26ebed08ce1a32/ROADMAP.md#multi-protocols
• multiproc - See https://github.com/ipfs/ipfs/blob/252d3f2a05995adb944707951f26ebed08ce1a32/ROADMAP.md#multi-protocols
• multicast - https://github.com/ipfs/ipfs/blob/252d3f2a05995adb944707951f26ebed08ce1a32/ROADMAP.md#multi-protocols
• multihop - https://github.com/ipfs/ipfs/blob/252d3f2a05995adb944707951f26ebed08ce1a32/ROADMAP.md#multi-protocols
• multipart - https://github.com/ipfs/ipfs/blob/252d3f2a05995adb944707951f26ebed08ce1a32/ROADMAP.md#multi-protocols

I would also like to have all of the implementations in here:

• multiaddr: protocol design
  • multiaddr: impl in Go
  • multiaddr: impl in JS
  • multiaddr: impl in Java
  • multiaddr: impl in Haskell
  • multiaddr: impl in Python
  • multiaddr: impl in Rust
• multihash: protocol spec
  • multihash: impl in Go
  • multihash: impl in JS
  • multihash: impl in Scala
  • multihash: impl in Java
  • multihash: impl in Clojure
  • multihash: impl in Rust
  • multihash: impl in Haskell
  • multihash: impl in Python
  • multihash: impl in Elixir
  • multihash: impl in Swift
  • multihash: impl in Ruby
• multicodec: protocol spec
  • multicodec: impl in Go
  • multicodec: impl in JS
• multistream: protocol spec
  • multistream: impl in Go
  • multistream: impl in JS
• multibase / baseN: protocol spec May not exist?
  • multibase / baseN: impl in Go
  • multibase / baseN: impl in JS

One's that @jbenet needs to move over, from his list of repos:

• https://github.com/jbenet/go-multiaddr
• https://github.com/jbenet/js-multihash
• https://github.com/jbenet/go-multihash
• https://github.com/jbenet/js-multiaddr
• https://github.com/jbenet/js-multihashing (What is this?)
• https://github.com/jbenet/go-multiaddr-net (What is this?)
• https://github.com/jbenet/go-multicodec
• https://github.com/jbenet/go-peerstream

And diasdavid: diasdavid/js-multistream, diasdavid/multistream-netcat, diasdavid/node-multiplex-stream-muxer, diasdavid/js-multistream-netcat.

[jbenet]

go-peerstream is a libp2p thing if anything

[jbenet]

thanks @RichardLitt ! moved mine

[RichardLitt]

@jbenet Should we not move over all of the implementations, then? We could ask people to move them to this organization.

[jbenet]

Yeah I'd be in favor of moving to this org. It's very much a request
though, their choice

Can I have approval that none of these exist as specs anywhere, or written in some repo?

• multispecs
• multi-multiplexing (multimux?) - See multi-multiplexing; implementation question ipfs/specs#33
• multitransport
• multiplex - See this roadmap file
• multiproc - See this roadmap file
• multicast - See this roadmap file
• multihop - See this roadmap file
• multipart - See this roadmap file

[RichardLitt]

Pinged all of the authors - thanks, all. I'm going to consider this closed when we have responses from them.

[daviddias]

multicast - See this roadmap file
multihop - See this roadmap file
multipart - See this roadmap file

These are not multiformats

multi-multiplexing (multimux?) - See ipfs/specs#33

Not a thing

multiplex - See this roadmap file

Also not a multiformat

[RichardLitt]

What about -proc and -transport?

[daviddias]

I don't think those are things either

[RichardLitt]

Well that settles that then. And, on second thought, since none of the other implementations mandatorily need to move here in any timeframe, I am going to close this issue. Discussion can continue; reopen as needed.
