Always "weh" about when folks call the color that especially, it feels in the vein of South Park dismissal of people's ability to like things they just plain like.

I like my plant/sage green. It's not 'millenial', it's a color that's calming and comforting to me. Don't box my expressing a genuine interest in a thing into a dismissive label category.

For Twisted/XMPP developers: I've published Tx-XMPP, a (friendly) fork of Wokkel due to it being unmaintained for years. I've merged several PRs that I needed, along with code from `sat_tmp`, which was a "temporary" package to monkey-patch Wokkel to add those changes (finally not needed anymore after 11+ years!).

https://pypi.org/project/tx-xmpp/

I will provide minimal maintenance to keep it up-to-date with the latest versions of Twisted and Python.

It is once again time to do one of my semi-regular fundraising posts wherein, if you wish to support my writing and analytical work, you can do so at the links below! Moving is expensive, and the more I get through these channels the more essays you can expect, so... there is incentive, I guess?

I don't mean to be a killjoy but "vouching for trusted people" is not a scalable way to build a software ecosystem. I was there, I ran signing parties, I was a CAcert assurer, I've got a strong-set GPG key in a hardware token, none of it worked beyond the most fringe of the fringe dorks. You get a few ossified relationships between major public figures and a small ring of friends around each, and then your permissions are effectively locked down forever. Do you want to live in the world where you need to have a million followers to launch a new framework?

The ecosystem we've all been building in and on top of for decades is so deeply permeated by "assume good intent" at all levels that I'm not sure people are ready for the velocity reduction that is coming after the next few claw-based JiaTans. The first one will be an oddity, but eventually we're going to have to grapple with buying huge vertically integrated dev stacks from Trusted Vendors™ or we make everything from scratch again.
