Matrix is an open protocol for decentralised, secure communications. The Matrix.org Foundation exists to act as a neutral custodian for Matrix and to nurture it as efficiently as possible as a single unfragmented standard.

25 years ago Jeremie Miller made an announcement of what would become the initiation, development and propagation of the protocol until today!

Join the journey!

The world is better for having XMPP in it.

The Foundation's Managing Director, @josh, recently completed a migration from managed Matrix with EMS to self-hosting using the matrix-docker-ansible-deploy project. It was a tricky process, so we're sharing the details!

Whether or not you're migrating homeservers, or setting up a fresh homeserver, the matrix-docker-ansible-deploy project greatly simplifies getting started with self-hosting.

More in today's blog post: https://matrix.org/blog/2024/01/migrating-from-ems-to-selfhosted-matrix/

There will be a event at the assembly about running Matrix in

https://events.ccc.de/congress/2023/hub/en/event/matrix-on-kubernetes/

Will look deeper into how easy or difficult it might be to run our own Matrix server with built in. This is a collateral benefit of DE government projects.

Fractal going full steam, a private social network on Matrix in beta, and Cloudflare being a naughty provider. That, and much more happened this week in Matrix! 🗞️

(Note the temporary www2 subdomain, a holiday special courtesy of Cloudflare breaking our deploys without notice. We'll publish to the main site as soon as the situation is resolved.)

@jomo Cloudflare is currently part of our website deployment process and our CF account was unceremoniously frozen without notice. Unfortunately, given the timing, we don't expect it to be resolved until mid-to-late next week.

Happy solstice from all of us at the Matrix.org Foundation!

We're looking forward to what we will all accomplish together in 2024.

Till then, we wish you warmth and joy as we approach the new year.

The @matrix is moving away from Patreon. But the interesting part is that they are moving to Donorbox with minimum donation of £5 per month.

I personally find this limit unacceptable and even too high. But the question is, would you donate £5 or more to Matrix?

Please boost 🔁 for reach

Edit: it seems it is possible, they just didn't share the link in Patreon announcement.

matrix,
@matrix@mastodon.matrix.org avatar

@Mehrad It's still possible to donate at lower levels, that's just on a different page: https://donorbox.org/keep-matrix-exciting

We linked to both in the Patreon announcement but on reflection it was not clear. We will edit the post to make it more clear.

Thanks for your support!

@Mehrad Hrmm, ok thanks for catching that. The post has been updated for clarity! Sorry for getting that wrong in the first place.

Thanks also for the note about currency. Our other supporter form includes several currencies and we'll correct the membership form so that it also supports multiple currencies.

Let's get prepared to elect our first Governing Board and take the next big step in open governance for Matrix 🚀

Also: we're pleased to introduce a couple new tiers of membership, for open source projects and foundations, who will be represented on the Governing Board.

The Matrix Foundation is going to clean-up the last traces of the Libera Chat bridge. This could break links to your rooms if you didn't set an alias for them.

Find all the details in our blog.

@serebit @archlinux We share your disappointment–naturally, our staffers and colleagues were bridge users, too!

Our hope is that, as we address funding issues, we'll be able to invest more in public community bridges – but that may be a ways off, alas.

Has anyone written a "bot" that sends messages and doesn't just reply to them?
Ideally in Python.

All the libraries I can find seem to be exclusively for responding to messages/reactions, but I want the bot to send messages.

Maybe I mean "bridge"?

@matrix@mastodon.matrix.org avatar

@M0YNG @didek what language are you looking for? matrix-bot-sdk is a very simple way to just send msgs - see sending/receiving in https://matrix.org/docs/older/matrix-bot-sdk-intro/

Following up on last month's news about Synapse and Dendrite, @element has begun implementing its planned forks, starting with Synapse.

We recommend reading their latest blog post for details: https://element.io/blog/synapse-now-lives-at-github-com-element-hq-synapse/

The Foundation is pleased to see that, not only do the forked projects remain under an open source license, but Element binds itself, through the CLA, to keeping 3rd party contributions in the open source commons.

@serebit @element Yes, very pleased with that -- thank you!

@chebra @element We recommend reading the CLA.

@thanius @element Great question! Pleased to say there will be no impacts for users on the Matrix.org homeserver.

Matrix at 37C3, thread notifications going a lot better in the spec and Element Web, and a new database in the Dart SDK. That, and more happened this week in Matrix!

We thank @OpenForumEurope, @osi, @EclipseFdn, and the constellation of FOSS foundations who have been doing fantastic advocacy work on the EU's Cyber Resilience Act.

The legislation was passed last Friday with carveouts for open source that is developed in a not-for-profit manner. Learn more in OFE's press release: https://openforumeurope.org/eu-cyber-resilience-act-takes-a-leap-forward/

Several potential speakers asked us to extend the deadline of our CfP for the Matrix Devroom at FOSDEM.

We are extending the deadline to Friday 8th December, and we're looking forward to reviewing your proposals!

We're glad to see that Tchap, which is built on , is one of the messaging tools that remain available to French civil servants following this change in policy: https://www.politico.eu/article/france-requires-ministers-to-swap-whatsapp-signal-for-french-alternatives/

@slackline Indeed, the stated reasoning is ... curious. To your point, no software is devoid of vulnerabilities!
