gnemmi: thanks

The library python-nbxmpp was updated as well

cal0pteryx, Thank you! And thanks for pointing out the nbxmpp update. I've already added it to the pad and would like to know what you think

- [nbxmpp 5.0.4](https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/python-nbxmpp/-/releases/5.0.4) has been updated with the following bugfixes: Bookmarks: Store password, Hats: Make struct compareable, Pubsub: Don’t process pubsub events from full jids.

I could add that "hats" refers to XEP-0317 and add a link to it but I'm not sure what XEP's the other two bugfixes are referring to .. 🫠

Nah, its fine as it is :)

Perfect then 🙂

Thank you 🤗

Just for curiosity's sake (and learning).. the "Pubsub: Don’t process pubsub events from full jids." is referring to xep-0475? "The XMPP address found in the 'to' element's 'jid' attribute SHOULD be without Resourcepart (i.e., a bare JID)." ?

I think it's just about XEP-0060, but that detail is not really necessary imho

Agreed. I just wanted to see if I could figure out the XEP by myself without any external reference 😉

Thanks for pointing me out in the right direction 😉

There are many xeps based on pubsub

Yup ... that was the reason why I couldn't figure out what XEP the bugfix was addressing

22 .. discarding Historical and Humorous

XEP-0060 seems to be the only stable one

There are several stable ones. Xou can sort by status on https://xmpp.org/extensions

that was what I did .. the only one marked as "stable" is XEP-0060 🤔

Most of them are marked as Experimental

Ah you meant pubsub related, now I get it ;)

🙂
