[jdev] [ANN] Prosody 0.5.2 Released

[Matthew Wild]

Hello!

We are pleased to announce the release of Prosody 0.5.2.

This is a bugfix release for the stable 0.5 branch. It is jam-packed
with fixes to
make Prosody more robust to unreliable networks, and some smaller
client compatibility
changes.

Prosody is a lightweight Jabber/XMPP server written in Lua. It aims
to be flexible, easy to extend, and simple to use for both users
and developers alike.

The following is a summary of changes since the previous version:

   * PEP: Fix sending of iq replies on publish
   * MUC: Add MUC namespace to errors (fixes Gajim's behaviour)
   * BOSH: Fix reply for host-unknown errors
   * More reliably prevent adding yourself to your roster
   * Fix leaked session object when XEP-0114 components disconnect
   * Apply nodeprep (i.e. case normalization) to usernames at login
   * Implement timeout for s2s dialback responses
   * Correctly fall back on alternate DNS nameservers if one fails
   * More robust parsing of resolv.conf
   * mod_httpserver: Allow configuration of HTTP base path
   * mod_console: Gracefully close streams when using s2s:close()
   * Fix libidn crash on Vista and some other Windows systems

Meanwhile development of our 0.6 branch is ongoing. Those interested in getting
involved are invited to our chatroom, for more info see
