hubzilla_ynh/sources/CHANGELOG

Hubzilla 1.4
	[This list may appear brief, but encompasses a huge amount of re-writing and re-factoring
	of the internal code structure to gain long-term performance and stability and provide a standard
	interface to alternate protocol federation plugins which were made possible by the UNO configuration.
	UNO is a configuration of hubzilla introduced in 1.3 with reduced complexity and which provides 
	improved protocol federation potential to other networks by virtue of removing nomadic identity 
	(which is not possible to model or work around using other network protocols).]  

	Implement channel move operation for UNO configuration
	Remove bookmark references in UNO (which has no bookmarks by default)
	UI cleanup profiles/chat/manage
	Refactor webfinger probes and salmon backend for GNU-social federation
	SECURITY: DAV authentication exploit

	More help pages
	Provide 'posts only' feed
	Refactor App to remove globals
	Refactor Session to remove globals
	provide a fullscreen mode for selected modules and functions

	system rename (e.g. http to https or DNS name change) missing some connection photos
	calendar module not blocked to public whhen block_public enabled
	Use timeago.js in reshare content so that timestamps will be correct on federated reshares
	Rework detection of JavaScript to avoid reload penalty under normal operation
	Changed primary directory server to a hubzilla server
	Plugins:
		Diaspora - switch to alternate XML parser to avoid storing compound objects	
		GNU-Social - Huge amounts of work, federation somewhat working now, several issues remain
		Friendica - Initial federation work (not yet published)

	"Hubzilla UNO" (Hubzilla with radically simplified and locked site settings) implemented as an install configuration. 
	.well-known directory conflict worked out to support LetsEncrypt cert ownership checks without disrupting webfinger and other internal uses of .well-known
	Lots of work on 'zcards' which are self-contained HTML representations of a channel including cover photos, profile photos, and some text information
	Long standing bug uncovered which failed to properly restrict the lower time limit for public feed requests

	Removed the "markdown" feature as there are numerous issues and no maintainer.
