Tigase server 2.9.0 Beta

New server version has been released.
There are a lot of new stuff in this release, bug fixes and improvements so this version can not be considered stable yet.

Even though I run extensive tests over this version and all seems to work fine, please use it carefully as this is beta release.

The most important change is StanzaReceiver component with whole framework. The most visible and useful feature of this component is message distribution system.

You can try it out yourself. The simplest possible way which works with all Jabber/XMPP clients:

1. You can add to your roster one of JIDs from the list below. You will then receive automatic notifications:
   • development-news@srecv.tigase.org - I will occasionally send send a message for all subscribes about news related to Tigase development. These news will not be published anywhere else. You will be able to respond directly to me and discuss the topic.
   • forum-8@srecv.tigase.org - FAQ forum monitor. All new topics or comments published on this forum will be automatically forwarded to all subscribers.
   • forum-2@srecv.tigase.org - Tigase admin support forum monitor. All new topics or comments published on this forum will be automatically forwarded to all subscribers.
   • forum-3@srecv.tigase.org - Tigase devel forum monitor. All new topics or comments published on this forum will be automatically forwarded to all subscribers.
   • forum-4@srecv.tigase.org - Tigase site forum monitor. All new topics or comments published on this forum will be automatically forwarded to all subscribers.
   • forum-1@srecv.tigase.org - Tigase user support forum monitor. All new topics or comments published on this forum will be automatically forwarded to all subscribers.
2. If you have Jabber/XMPP client with full service-discovery and ad-hoc commands support you can create message distribution tasks on your own. These tasks will work in similar way as newsletter over XMPP. Just browse service discovery: StanzaReceiver --> Tasks management commands --> Add new task... and run this command and follow instructions.
