  4. Since the move from Debian to Trisquel few months ago, and the move to the
  5. `rel4tion.org` domain, the Jabber server and CA haven't been properly managed
  6. and updated. Finally there are news.
  7. # CA
  8. The **Rel4tion** certificate authority (CA) has been re-created using GnuTLS
  9. and the certificates signed by it will soon be signed by the new CA. When that
  10. happens, HTTPS and all the other SSL/TLS using services will properly work.
  11. They already do work now, but there's no CA to verify the certificates.
  12. The Jabber server's certificate has been signed already by the new CA.
  13. Information about installing the CA certificate is [[here|/access/tls]].
  14. # Jabber / XMPP
  15. The Jabber server now uses a new certificate signed by the new CA. Registration
  16. is now open, because I have tools to track and prevent spam. Chatrooms are
  17. available too. Federation should work, but other Jabber servers probably don't
  18. recognize **Rel4tion**'s CA or its Jabber server certificate. Of course this
  19. can be solved.
  20. Information about the Jabber server is [[here|/access/jabber]].
  21. # Other News
  22. I'm working on [[/projects/Idan]]'s manual. When done, I'll update and tutorial
  23. and the definition, and start working on the parser. The current plan is to use
  24. *parsec* for this.
  25. I'm also working on a patch for *Toxic*, the text-based Tox client, which adds
  26. GNU screen and tmux auto-away support. It's almost done.
  27. Hopefully, Trisquel will soon have packages for GHC 7.8.3 and cabal-install
  28. 1.20, which means users will have a clean start with Haskell without PPAs and
  29. source tarball mess. I just need to fix the merge request.
  30. <http://notabug.org> is a new Git hosting website. If you were using Gitorious
  31. until the recent announcement about GitLab "acquiring" it, you should consider
  32. NotABug. GitHub, GitLab, BitBucket... all run proprietary code and/or contain
  33. ads. NotABug is a safe place for people who care about their users and protect
  34. their software freedom.
