Mumble / Murmur Authentication with XenForo

[Jesepi]

Mumble is an open source, low-latency, high quality voice chat software primarily intended for use while gaming.

People have written scripts that allow both SMF and PHPBB forums to provide the authentication for mumble servers.

Having XenForo in the list would be a great thing.

Don't really see why you would want username/password authentication in Mumble when certificates do a generally better job.

Though on an unrelated note, a Mumble sidebar widget is something I have been planning to make for a while now.

Certificates are fine except that people never remember to back them up and its more of a hassle to delete/recreate the user when they private message you saying they're not allowed to connect when they re-use their normal name when connecting to mumble.

Since they are already managing their account on a separate service you offer (forums) it might as well work with all the other stuff you run. Just one less thing to mess with.

Sorry for the late response, also.
