no, maybe today ✏

hi. peetah oh I was about to do exactly that (fixing lists), thanks!

and the lists were appearing fine with my local markdown parser.

Do you plan any extra changes? Otherwise I will ask zash to trigger docker again

emus: not sure if you're talking to me, but beside what peetah did, I had no plan to do anything else.

goffi: yes, okay ☺

emus: the XEP section lists are still not right: on level of indentation instead of 2

concerning the language annotation of articles, whether :lang: (but again, this is an accessibility issue) or [language] at the end or beginning of the paragraph, I think it is important to show our readers that XMPP is discussed in various languages and cultures that they can feel closer to or more simply to avoid being trapped in an english mono-culture

peetah: Okay, I would agree to place the language in brackets at the end? What do you think?

I would love to see a newsletter filled with articles from all over the world in various languages

In the beginning it think it disturbes reading flow

Yeah that would be great

I'm fine with brackets at the end

peetah, 👍️

I try set a systematic review of google search results for the term 'xmpp' in order to spot interesting articles from broader origin than what we currently have

therefore, I'll post here the links that I consider may be interesting, not automatically to be included in the newsletter, but to have some of you evaluating it as a potential candidate for the newsletter

peetah: nice

released in may, but this mail to XMPP tool at the MTA level may be interesting to follow for a future newsletter: https://www.puppeteers.net/2020/05/26/email-to-xmpp-bridge-milter-xmpp-released/

do we agree that any article explaining how to install or deploy an XMPP server or client is not fit for the newsletter ?

If it is recent and well written and adds some insight I'd say it may have a point

peetah: We should keep in mind that this is a newsletter. Maybe your idea is good for a new project?

is'nt the newsletter supposed to relay articles of interest ?

Sure, but for how long do you want to repeat those articles? I'd rather prefer to improve the XSF page - what I intended already - for example? there we can accumulate leading or good articles - or we create a selected archive?

why repeat ? If I really can find that much articles in a month, which I doubt, a selection of really good ones could go in the newsletter, and then populate the XSF page with all the non selected ones

> a blog post in german considering the security aspect of XMPP and conversations: https://www.kuketz-blog.de/conversations-messaging-ueber-das-xmpp-protokoll-messenger-teil6/ This is already added. 😃

peetah, ah I thought you are looking for old articles

I think at the moment the newsletter is not overloaded, but if that will become the case we can do some redaction. But yes, we should then act on this. Or do you think currently the newsletter is overloaded?

Martin: and I even put a comment about it in the related PR :) I knew that I had seen this name somewhere before ;)

Martin peetah 👍️

😃

emus: I don't think it is, as I said above, I would like to add diversity in the article section

ah okay, that was the connection
