Prosody 0.12.3

Upstream is pleased to announce a new minor release from their stable branch.

This is a bugfix release for the stable 0.12 series. Most notably, it fixes a regression for SQL users introduced in 0.12.2, and a separate long-standing compatibility issue with archive stores on certain MySQL/MariaDB versions.

It also fixes an issue with websockets discovered by the Jitsi team, some issues with the internal HTTP client API, and upstream improved the accuracy of prosodyctl check dns in certain configurations.

Fixes and improvements

• mod_storage_sql: Don’t avoid initialization under prosodyctl (fix mod_storage_sql changes breaking prosodyctl)
• mod_storage_sql: Fix for breaking change in certain MySQL versions
• prosodyctl check dns: Check for Direct TLS SRV records even if not configured

Minor changes
