    emus, FYI: XML elements in markdown are not rendered, e.g. https://github.com/xsf/xmpp.org/commit/9da2eb74e0a4729eaf17bcecbc88485b423bef79#diff-f4b174882d8adce2dc4936973907384a28020cc6305b138add2f5d3a669ef887R126 <sign/> does not appear in https://xmpp.org/2020/11/newsletter-11-november/

  3. flow

    that's probably something the newsletter editor(s) should be aware of, as we probably will mention an XML element here and then in the XSF newsletter

  4. jonas’

    flow, oh it does

  5. jonas’

    but only in the source code

  6. Zash

    Yay HTML passtrough

  7. jonas’

    Fix 'to'-attribute requirements: All content elements which are signed using OpenPGP need that attribute to prevent Surreptitious Forward Attacks. The <crypt> element does not require one, as the intented recipient is established by the encryption itself. The XEP had the requirements for <sign> and <crypt> mixed up.</crypt></sign></crypt>

    IIRC the workaround is to use backticks around the XML elements in markdown

  10. Zash

    or backslash-escape, yes

  11. Ge0rG

    Somebody should add tooling to disallow html pass through without an explicit flag in the file

  12. Zash

    flow, PR it?

  13. Zash

    Ge0rG: Slightest idea of how one would do that to pelican?

  14. Ge0rG

    Zash: nope

  15. emus

    flow, jonas’: Thanks for reporting. I understood there was no intention to render actually? wurstsalat

  16. flow

    emus, the XML elements should appear in the sentence, as otherwise the sentence is broken

  17. emus

    ok, lets remind wurstsalat

  18. wurstsalat

    I’ll keep that in mind, thanks flow !
