Renga 1.29 (XMPP client)

It’s been a year since the previous release of Renga, time to make a new one.

New features

  • Listing chat rooms from the local server
  • Handle room feature flags (moderated rooms, public or anonymous, etc)
  • Handle moderated rooms: disable text input when not allowed to talk, and add a “raise hand” button
  • Add menu to set custom state in group chats (away, available for chat, etc) per room
  • Add button to edit topic (if you have permissions to do so)

Bug fixes

  • Fix various bugs, crashes, missing icons, failure to open the documentation
  • Fix connecting to servers that don’t have an xmpps-client DNS entry
  • Do not do starttls on connections that are already TLS
  • Fix window that can’t be resized down, fix size of icon in main window
  • Fix layout of settings window

It should be available in the repositories soon.
