Beta

There is currently no beta releases of Parsee

Alpha

v0.3.0[lunar-rainbow] <XX/XX/2025>

This is the first release of 2025! TBD

New things

• Allow admins to remove users from the nofly list.
• Parsee can now access the homeserver/component locally (rather than over the network)
• The endpoint for media has been changed to '/media/[SERV]/[ID]?hmac=...'
• Add parsee-plumb tool to manage plumbing from outside Parsee if it is not running.
• Add packaging for Guix (see #18)

Bugfixes

• Fix potential infinite loops when processing some messages.
• Parsee now handles pinging puppets from Matrix more sanely.

v0.2.0[star-of-hope] <8/11/2024>

Fixes some media metadata things, replaces the build system, tries out avatar support some more, MUC contexts, and speeds up Parsee just a bit. MbedTLS support is still highly unstable.

New things

• Start dealing with some basic PEP and vCard-based avatar support from both sides.
• Banning Parsee from a XMPP MUC effectively unlinks it from the MUC.
• Start adding basic documentation to Parsee, through the wiki page.
• Add MUC whitelists for plumbing, alongside a whitelist tool
• Add parameter for setting the max stanza size allowed, with the default being the XMPP minimum of 10000 bytes.
• Allows experimental MbedTLS through a specific Cytoplasm patch (though still unstable AND slow).
• Does basic work towards NetBSD support(especially with DEC Alpha)
• Start contextualising XMPP commands(all/Parsee admins/MUCs).

Bugfixes

• Adds more information to media events so that clients can behave.
• Fixes issues where SIGPIPE can actually just kill Parsee.
• "Lone" XMPP messages no longer render weirdly on Element Android's weird rendering.
• Start fixing bug where Parsee takes several seconds to send a message coming from XMPP with MbedTLS(it is still slow and unstable)
• Fix issue where the XMPP server would kill Parsee if avatars are too large.
• Refactor some of the code to abstract sending stanzas down the wire to a specific function, thus allowing us to check for certain conditions more easily(for example, verifying the size on the fly, or having extensions being able to postprocess the stanza).
• Parsee now stops when a stream error is received, instead of being in a limbo state.
• The format for links has been changed to be slighlty less annoying.

Deprecated features

• The old build.c and Makefiles used for building are removed, and replaced by the configure.c C file(/script via TCC).
