[Psi-Devel] 0.11-RC3

[Kevin Smith]

It’s release candidate time.  This should be the last RC3, touch wood.
Psi-0.11-RC3 is out, please grab your copies from:

Source: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/psi/psi-0.11-RC3.tar.bz2
Mac: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/psi/Psi-0.11-RC3.dmg
Windows: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/psi/psi-win32-0.11-RC3.zip

Known Issues:
A very small number of users (currently only one that we know of  
reproducably) are affected by a crash in this version of Psi; we're  
working on trying to track this down and fix it but have decided to  
not delay the release of 0.11 any further for it, as it will work  
fine for the vast majority of users. However; if you use Psi in an  
absolutely mission-critical environment, it may be safest to continue  
to use 0.10 until the bugfix is applied.

Please test; if no show-stopping bugs are revealed in the next few  
weeks, we’ll go gold. The changelog since 0.10 is as follows (people  
interested in the bugs fixed since RC2 can query flyspray :)):

* Reworked account registration process (including proper support for  
XEP-0077 (In-band registration))
* Finished support for XEP-0004 (Data Forms) by supporting forms in  
messages. (thanks to Roelof Naude)
* Added support for JEP-0070 (Verifying HTTP Requests via XMPP).

supported on non-Macs.

* Added support for using JEP-33 (Extended Stanza Addressing) to  
multicast messages to multiple users. Use option.enable-multicasting  
to enable it.
* Added ‘Show status message’ toggle. There is a hidden option to put  
status messages under the nickname (at the cost of 2 extra pixels  
when no status message is shown)

conferences are auto-joined. No UI is provided for creating bookmarks  
(yet).
