Hi everyone!

I can translate some stuff to Serbian (Balkan lenguages) if you want

Hi, we’ve just released slixmpp 1.6.0, if you want to include that for December: https://lab.louiz.org/poezio/slixmpp/-/tags/slix-1.6.0 ✏

Link Mauve: wow nice new plugins you got there ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

wow, nice changelog

Hi Aleksej - that is really great. Can you also imagine to do this continuously? Anyway - if you provide this we can link to that translation!

I can do it for a while now yes, I have time

Nice. Do you want to start with the current release or the next one? Because we have a new years break more or less and will publish the next one in Feburary 2021 - does that sound good for you? I havent placed the new draft yet but hopefully by tonight or tomorrow

Aleksej: which messenger do you use?

@wurstsalat gajim

Aleksej, if you know some Python, contributors are welcome ;)

I do, not sure if where exactly I should start

Aleksej, you’re welcome to join xmpp:gajim@conference.gajim.org?join

I will, thank you

wurstsalat: Dont take away potential ressources from the newsletter!! 😁😁😁 No just kidding, I can do some Python too

haha :D

why not both? :)

true

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

We could also remove the rule to release only on Tuesday or Thursdays. Then we could always release on the 6th of a month

3 days drafting, 3 days review

or the 5th, 2 days drafting, 3 days review

The french translation of November 2020 XMPP newsletter is ready for your reviews, corrections and improvements here: https://linuxfr.org/redaction/news/la-lettre-d-information-xmpp-de-novembre-2020, thanks for your contributions

Ah great!

What do you think guys? 2 days for final edits + 3 for review? Or keep it as it was regarding the tuesdays or thursdays rule?

I personally think it doesnt matter really. People get spammed everyday nowadays ✏

@jcbrand @SouL

emus: for me it's okay to have dates set rather than weekdays

I think too, because that is what people complain about

so lets have a days drafting time, then 3 days for people to review?

Sounds good to me. I'd like to see more reviews :)

Me too

I improved the visual structuring a bit:

What do you think? I think it is more tidied up anc better to read

I liked the old one better https://github.com/xsf/xmpp.org/pull/830 , because there you could see the flow of actions. bullet points don’t show this in the same way ;)

(at least for me)

I will try to encapsulate

wurstsalat hopt thats better: https://github.com/xsf/xmpp.org/pull/851

yeah that’s better, and it surely does the job :)

I thought about making the round up on Tue, 22nd of December. Everyone gets a Glühwein and can listen a bit to me talking on the Newsletter round up and then we can talk a bit. Whom ever wants

6 - 7 pm

So - other then that I am done for this year 😀

emus, sounds like a nice idea, I’ll try to join
