Ignite Realtime Blog: Botz version 1.2.0 release
We have just released version 1.2.0 of the Botz framework for Openfire!

The Botz library adds to the already rich and extensible Openfire with the ability to create internal user bots.

In this release, a bug that prevented client sessions for bots from being created was fixed. Hat-tip to

Kris Iyer for working with us on a fix!

Okay, so I spent about one hour setting up cmake, fltk and libcurl for c++, got all that running now.
I still need to fix the cmake script a bit, but I have a working verison now with this.
I will now add the same curl stuff I had in rust in c++, then work on the gui and all that.
So I will drop rust, and go for c++ instead, much easier for me. Was worth a try in rust, but for now that’s not for me to be honest, I much faster and better in c++.

Lindypress Bug Fix
Just a brief note that for the past couple of days, you might’ve been unable to buy books on LindyPress.net if you are in the United States, Canada or Australia (which is a lot of you). This has now been fixed, so you can place your orders now!

The issue was that there was a silent API update that kept addresses from validating states and provinces. Note that if your order placed, it’s all okay, this is only for people for whom the site would not let place an order.

Prosodical Thoughts: Prosody 0.12.3 released
We are pleased to announce a new minor release from our stable branch.

This is a bugfix release for our stable 0.12 series. Most notably, it fixes a
regression for SQL users introduced in 0.12.2, and a separate long-standing
compatibility issue with archive stores on certain MySQL/MariaDB versions.

It also fixes an issue with websockets discovered by the Jitsi team, some
issues with our internal HTTP client API, and we’ve improved the accuracy of
‘prosodyctl check dns’ in … ⌘ Read more

Gajim’s build system had significant changes, which makes it necessary for package maintainers to change some things, as documented in the readme file.

My motivation to work on GoBlog isn’t always the same. Sometimes I don’t feel like programming in my free time, so the most I do is some bug fixing when I find broken things. Sometimes I just have no time to work on new features or improvements. But since yesterday evening I feel a new push and have completely rewritten the plugin system to make it much more flexible (and I like flexibility). I had to break compatibility with existing plugins, but given the small user base and the limited scope of what plugins could … ⌘ Read more

@prologic@twtxt.net git worked after upgrade. But I seem to have to reinstall go. I have not done that yet. I will see if I have time to fix that later tonight.

I have found the issue with this very subtle bug.. the cache was returning a slice that would be mutated. The mutation involved appending an item and then sorting. because the returned slice is just a pointer+length the sort would modify the same memory.

          CACHE         Returned slice

Hmmm, after fixing my feeds to move the <author> from <entry>s to <feed>, Newsboat marked all old affected articles as unread. IDs were untouched, of course. Need to investigate that. Had something similar happen with another feed change I did some time ago. Can’t remember what that was, though.

@mckinley@twtxt.net Thank you! I didn’t even know about signing and encrypting XML documents. Right, RSS is a little bit messy.

Unfortunately, the autodiscovery document in one of your linked resources does not exist anymore. What annoys me in Atom is the distinction between <id> and <link>. I always want my URL also to be my ID, so I have to duplicate that – unnecessarily in my opinion.

Also, never found a good explanation why I should add <link rel="self" … /> to my feeds. I just do, but I don’t understand why. The W3C Feed Validation Service says:

[…] This value is important in a number of subscription scenarios where often times the feed aggregator only has access to the content of the feed and not the location from which the feed was fetched.

This just sounds like a very questionable bandaid to bad software architecture. Why would the feed parser need access to the feed URL at this stage? And if so, why not just pass down the input source? Just doesn’t make sense to me.

Also, I just noticed that I reference the http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/syndication/ namespace, but don’t use it in most of my feeds. Gotta fix that. Must have copied that from my yfav feed without paying attention what I’m doing.

Your article made me reread the Atom spec and I found out, that I can omit the <author> in the <entry> when I specify a global <author> at <feed> level. Awesome! Will do that as well and thus reduce the feed size.
