  • Late March News

    Hello! Last "real" post was about 2 months ago.. I got busy with stuff at home but also made a lot of adjustments here and there at @wpn. Let me list the most important ones: Set up shell and email users' homes backup: archives are still stored on the VPS for the time being, till when I'll find another proper backup location. Cleaned up /var/www/ and nginx virtualhosts; also removed "Shaarli", since I wasn't really using it anymore. Added a new board on the main site for BitTorrent, reachable here: https://woodpeckersnest.space/board/torrents Upgraded XMPP Prosody server to 13.0.0 and isolated anon webchat even more, so that those users won't be able to connect to Biboumi IRC gateway. Upgraded all #slixmpp powered bots to 1.10, released only yesterday Formatted (again) the 2 pdf files regarding @wpn's Term of Use and Privacy Notice (no rules updates though) I think that's about it.. probably 😀 I'm definitely forgetting something. Some other news: a few new…

  • Busy Days, Exciting…

    Busy Days, Exciting Progress 🚀 It’s been a couple working months, busy and sometimes hard but in the best way possible! For starters, today the "GD" website went officially online, after we completed its migration from ZOPE to Wordpress and I couldn't be happier 😉 Another thrilling update is with COMMutiny, our social network project. The converse.js anonymous chat, originally set up for @wpn’s support room, has now found its own space within COMMutiny. This is a big step forward, and we’re inviting everyone interested in #XMPP, gaming, and social networks to join the conversation, anonymously or not. On top of that, we’ve launched a brand-new freelance website, powered by Hugo. It’s sleek, fast, and everything we hoped it would be — hooray for #Hugo! If you’re passionate about decentralized communication, gaming communities, or just want to connect with like-minded folks, we’d love to see you in COMMutiny! See you soon 👋
