[jadmin] ejabberd 0.9.8 released

[Martyn Baker]

Hi Mickael

I noticed that the windows binaries for 0.9.8 haven't appeared yet. Do we
have an ETA ?

Also, form what I read, message logging appears to be built in to this
version - is this correct ?

>     Recent changes include....
>
> Enhanced virtual hosting
>     Virtual hosting applies to many more setting options and
>     features and is transparent. Virtual hosting accepts different
>     parameters for different virtual hosts regarding the following
>     features: authentication method, access control lists and access
>     rules, users management, statistics, and shared roster. The web
>     interface gives access to each virtual host's parameters.
>
> Enhanced Publish-Subscribe module
>     ejabberd's Publish-Subscribe module integrates enhancements
>     coming from J-EAI, an XMPP-based integration server built on
>     ejabberd. ejabberd thus supports Publish-Subscribe node
>     configuration. It is possible to define nodes that should be
>     persistent, and the number of items to persist. Besides that, it
>     is also possible to define various notification parameters, such
>     as the delivery of the payload with the notifications, and the
>     notification of subscribers when some changes occur on items.
>     Other examples are: the maximum size of the items payload, the
>     subscription approvers, the limitation of the notification to
>     online users only, etc.
>
> Code reorganisation and update
>     - The mod_register module has been cleaned up.
>     - ODBC support has been updated and several bugs have been fixed.
>
> Development API
>     To ease the work of Jabber/XMPP developers, a filter_packet hook
>     has been added. As a result it is possible to develop plugins to
>     filter or modify packets flowing through ejabberd.
>
> Translations
>     - Translations have been updated to support the new Publish-Subscribe
>     features.
>     - A new Brazilian Portuguese translation has been contributed.
>
> Web interface
>     - The CSS stylesheet from the web interface is W3C compliant.
>
> Installers
>     Installers are provided for Microsoft Windows and Linux/x86. The
>     Linux installer includes Erlang ASN.1 modules for LDAP
>     authentication support.
>
> Bugfixes
>     - This release contains several bugfixes and architectural
>       changes. Among other bugfixes include improvements in LDAP
>       authentication. Please refer to the ChangeLog file supplied
>       with this release regarding all improvements in ejabberd.
