Good morning, everyone! I just noticed the Nov edition of the newsletter in my mailbox - supposedly, the last one this year. Having remembered adding some notes about MongooseIM to https://yopad.eu/p/xmpp-newsletter-365days - as suggested at https://xmpp.org/newsletter/, I hurried to check how it ended up in the final newsletter. So how? Surprise - not at all! The change from https://yopad.eu/p/xmpp-newsletter-365days was never moved to a GitHub PR, though other changes then present in yopad were. I can still find the text in yopad's history - https://yopad.eu/p/xmpp-newsletter-365days/timeslider#18439 - though it takes a while to load the snapshot. Moreover, I can see that more changes removed just after https://yopad.eu/p/xmpp-newsletter-365days/timeslider#18558 made it to the newsletter (for example the mention of xmpp-dns or PeerTube), but not the MongooseIM one. It seems the process with a lighter tool - yopad - instead of directly working with GH PR's seems less than perfect. Do you think reissuing this edition of the newsletter is possible? Otherwise, the MongooseIM 5.0 release won't be covered at all this year. ✏

For the context, the PR omitting the info about MIM is https://github.com/xsf/xmpp.org/commit/66ba14c2b7be6a329459ecd2d1f3ef1060a42079#diff-9badcd36b419c2ba79337c90cae7f037ff67ba53725fcc7d8e35f2969d0c8738

:(

I guess an oversight on copy/pasta

erszcz: Im a bit confused whats the matter. What article are you missing?

emus: the Mongoose Server news didn't end up in the Github PR, but was on the Pad before the cleanup

hmmmmm maybe copy paste fail. erszcz: can you do a PR for this?

emus: the note about MongooseIM: > MongooseIM 5.0 was released on 7th October! What’s new? Dynamic XMPP domains, improved documentation, multiple bugs fixed and more. Virtual hosting XMPP domains was already possible with MongooseIM, but dynamic domains make it possible to add new domains without restarting the server - and to add a lot of them! Load tests with up to 100k users have shown that now there's practically no difference between all the users connecting to a single domain and all of them connecting to 100k domains - that is one domain per user - yes, it's that flexible! BTW, it does mention October 7th, but it was only added for the November edition of the newsletter - maybe that's where the confusion came from

> erszcz: can you do a PR for this? I'm happy to do a PR in a few minutes

Hi everybody! Here is the Italian translation of the XMPP Newsletter November 2021 https://www.nicfab.it/newsletter-xmpp-di-novembre-2021-versione-italiana/

erszcz: Ok. now I understand. And I have to apologize. I remember I were asking for you but got no response. I took it out as there was no news linked directly. I wanted to discuss this, but then missed it out.

So, is there any news effectively? or something to link to?

Here's the PR: https://github.com/xsf/xmpp.org/pull/1032

the news is that version 5.0 was released

ahh, maybe it's that I didn't include a link - let me fix that

emus > I remember I were asking for you but got no response I might've been away, sorry for that - I was taking some time off soon after adding the notes to yopad. Good we got it sorted!

Is alright, sorry for this outcome :/

MattJ: when you have time for a new deployment that would be great

Done

@emus I registered my talk

Received! I'll check the dates and put it on the calendar tonight sometime. Thanks!

Oh I'm a bit late sorry, working on translation from now
