We are pleased to announce the release of Prosody 0.4.0. It's no joke. We have spent most effort this release improving Prosody internals, ensuring we have a solid base on which to build future features. Numerous bugs have been fixed and we recommend that all users of 0.3.0 upgrade.
That said, we do have a few new things in this release, namely roster versioning (allowing clients to cache the roster, instead of downloading it each time they connect) and support for external components, allowing the use of gateways/transports and other services. Prosody is a lightweight Jabber/XMPP server written in Lua. It aims to be flexible, easy to extend, and simple to use for both users and developers alike. The following is a summary of changes since the previous version: * Numerous stability fixes (highly recommended 0.3 users upgrade) * XEP-0114 support for external components (experimental) * mod_xmlrpc: Allow RPC calls over HTTP/XMPP to command a server * Roster versioning, to allow faster logins (experimental) * Fix BOSH race condition with multiple idle sessions * Handle missing <priority> in initial client presence * Fix for correct pass-through of stanzas with prefixed attributes * Fix routing of some stanzas directed to bare JIDs * Config improvements, better error reporting, Include command * SASL ANONYMOUS support for anonymous login when enabled * mod_version now reports OS type (configurable) * MUC: Support PMs, vCards, and misc. reliability fixes * Module API: Add stanza.clone, timers, and more * Various logging improvements We would appreciate feedback from those testing roster versioning - we are aware of no clients that support it currently, but hopefully that can soon change. Testing external component support would greatly help too, there are many different components, and we have only tried a couple. All of the known issues listed in the previous release have been fixed.
