Code syntax highlighting lost on the website

Syntax highlighting for Tigase code examples in our documentation has been lost after last, minor Drupal update. We are aware of it and we are working on bringing it back.

For some reason the old markup for the highlighting engine is no longer recognized. Therefore all code examples using this markup are displayed as a plain text.

There is another markup which seems to work fine, however, converting all the code examples is a manual and slow work which takes some time. Also we might be missing some of the pages in the process. Therefore, if you find a page which is not fixed yet, please let us know.

Presence forwarding in Tigase - user's presence on the website

Submitted by kobit on Tue, 2012-02-21 03:54

I have been asked a few times already how to share user's XMPP presence with some external system like a website for example. There are many ways to do this with Tigase, however, until now it required some additional code in the server to share the users' presence with other systems.

Wouldn't it be a great if you could just configure Tigase to share users' presence with your website?

Tigase XMPP Server 5.1.0 Beta4

Submitted by kobit on Thu, 2012-01-26 04:57

The final 5.1.0 for the Tigase XMPP Server is around the corner. While we are running the last tests you can grab Beta4 build which is most likely the same exact code we will publish as the final new version.....

Please note, the download section has been moved to our project tracking system which hosts all our projects and is based on Redmine.

As usually any comments are very welcomed.

XMPP and the ‘billion laughs’ DoS attack... continued

Thanks to isode folks and their article I got to know about the issue. I regret to say Tigase was not included in original tests and I was not notified about the potential problem.

I quickly checked Tigase myself and the good news is, similarly to M-Link XMPP Server, Tigase "is not (and never has been) vulnerable to this attack, no action is therefore required of Tigase users". :-)
