-! Title
+| Matrix protocol support
-! Details
+| [http://matrix.org/ Matrix] is an open, decentralized protocol for instant messaging (and more!) It has bridges to many other networks and protocol, e.g. IRC, Slack, and more. Initial support for Matrix was added in {{bug|1199855}}, but there's a lot to do still:
-! Skills Needed
-! Reporter
+* Support more features from the Matrix SDK (room topics, typing notifications, read receipts, etc.)
-! Mentor(s)
+* Support one-on-one conversations.
-! Comments
+* Add tests specific to Matrix.
-|-
+* Improve the Matrix JS-SDK that Instantbird and Thunderbird depend on.
+* Improving and expanding shared code and APIs used by all JavaScript protocol plugins (IRC, XMPP, Yahoo and Twitter).
+* Improving documentation of the process for adding a protocol to Instantbird/Thunderbird.
+* Using the Matrix protocol on a day-to-day basis to dog-food the code and see what else is missing.
