Dears,

the Debian XMPP has a blog, but it is not used heavily [1, 2].
That's fine - no need to blog, if there is nothing to blog about.

However, Debian 11 will be released soon
and many things happened since Debian 10 in Jabberland.

I would love to see a blog post with or after release of Debian 11,
giving a résumé of new and updated packages in Debian 11.

Just concentrating on end-user software, both clients and servers,
there are at least:

- biboumi   8.3                  -> 9.0
- dino-im   0.0.git20181129      -> 0.2.0
- ejabberd  18.12.1              -> 21.01
- gajim     1.1.2                -> 1.3.1
- new gajim plugins gajim-lengthnotifier, gajim-openpgp, and
  gajim-syntaxhighlight
- new chat client kaidan
- mcabber   1.1.0                -> 1.1.2
- poezio    0.12.1               -> 0.13.1
- profanity 0.6.0                -> 0.10.0
- prosody   0.11.2               -> 0.11.9
- prosody-modules 0.0~hg20190203 -> 0.0~hg20210130
  with many new modules added
- psi       1.3                  -> 1.5
- salutatoi 0.7.0a4              -> 0.8.0~hg3453
- new XMPP-SMS-gateway sms4you

Did I miss someting? Shall we add at least one sentence about every
package? Somehow I think, that upstreams deserve that respect :-)

The blog is aggregated both in Planet Debian and Planet Jabber.
I.e. it will reach the attention of interested people.

TIA for any comments & Cheers
