These aren't relevant to most users, but in the interest of
transparency, we also don't want the existence of these to feel like a
secret. And maybe publishing their existence will result in folks who
we forget to add to these private streams asking about them.
This document is mainly an answer to a set of questions other
developers have been asking about Zulip's architecture and scalability
design. It's intended for developers working on Zulip, to help with
thinking about where to prioritize further efforts to optimize
scalability.
This commit adds the Zulip logo to the readthedocs
documentation by adding an .svg file (taken from
zulip.com) to the `docs/images` directory.
Morever, it removes the name `Zulip` which was
written at the top of the sidebar because the
logo already has that.
Also fix incorrect 2011 copyright years; the original Zulip, Inc. that
was merged into Dropbox, Inc. was incorporated in 2012, not 2011.

We now require keywords, so that there is no
pitfall for mixing up boolean parameters.
Positional parameters are basically evil
when you have a bunch of bools.
I also make user_profile the first argument.
Finally, the code is more diff-friendly.
Support for saving it in the session is dropped in django3, the cookie
is the mechanism that needs to be used. The relevant i18n code doesn't
have access to the response objects and thus needs to delegate setting
the cookie to LocaleMiddleware.
Fixes the LocaleMiddleware point of #16030.
As of Feb 15th 2019, Hipchat Cloud and Stride
have reached End Of Life and are no longer
supported by Atlassian. Since it is almost 2 years
now we can remove the migration guides.
It seems the Ubuntu base image we use now has a new enough VirtualBox
Guest Additions to trigger the ETXTBSY bug even when it’s not upgraded
by the vagrant-vbguest plugin. Provide and document a way to
downgrade it.

We seem to periodically get contributors who rebase upstream commits
onto their pull request rather than the other way around, resulting in
a lot of GitHub noise. The PRs where this happens were made from
branches named master. We have always documented that you should work
on a feature branch, but not from this page; maybe this will help
reduce that kind of confusion.

We add navigating to user home inside WSL virtual disk as another
step as many users clone Zulip inside a mounted windows disk and
run into permission issues when running provision.
