As alluded to in the previous commit, only 3.0 can use the new tooling
-- indeed, it requires it, as the zulip.conf entry must be changed.
Clarify that in the upgrade steps for earlier distributions.
Update the upgrade documentation for the tool added in the previous
step. Only the Bionic -> Focal upgrade step need be updated, because
none of the other upgrade steps can be run starting from a Zulip 3.0
installation.
Fixes#15415.
After some discussion, everyone seems to agree that 3.0 is the more
appropriate version number for our next major release. This updates
our documentation to reflect that we'll be using 3.0 as our next major
release.
49a7a66004 and immediately previous commits began installing
PostgreSQL 12 from their apt repository. On machines which already
have the distribution-provided version of PostgreSQL installed,
however, this leads to failure to apply puppet when restarting
PostgreSQL 12, as both attempt to claim the same port.
During installation, if we will be installing PostgreSQL, look for
other versions than what we will install, and abort if they are
found. This is safer than attempting to automatically uninstall or
reconfigure existing databases.
The previous commit removed the only behavior difference between the
two flags; both of them skip user/database creation, and the tables
therein.
Of the two options `--no-init-db` is more explicit as to what it does,
as opposed to just one facet of when it might be used; remove
`--remote-postgres`.
In particular the Services ID and Bundle ID each have one of Apple's
random-looking 10-character identifiers, in addition to the Java-style
names the admin chooses. Best to be clear about what names are
supposed to be the chosen names and which are supposed to be the
random-looking assigned names.
(I don't know of any docs elsewhere making this clear -- but I guessed
it'd be this way, and empirically it works.)
Also mention you need to enable the backend. :-)
I believe the Bundle ID (aka App ID) and Services ID have meaning only
relative to a specific Team ID. In particular, in some places in the
developer.apple.com UI, they're displayed in a fully-qualified form
like "ABCDE12345.com.example.app", where "com.example.app" is the
App ID or Services ID and ABCDE12345 is the Team ID.
Adds the ability to set a SAML attribute which contains a
list of subdomains the user is allowed to access. This allows a Zulip
server with multiple organizations to filter using SAML attributes
which organization each user can access.
Cleaned up and adapted by Mateusz Mandera to fit our conventions and
needs more.

This adds a convenient way to review the upgrade notes for all Zulip
releases that one is upgrading across.
I thought about moving all the upgrade notes to a common section, but
in some cases the language is clearly explaining changes in the
release that are not duplicated elsewhere, and I think it reads better
having them inline alongisde related changes.
• Specify disabled rather than enabled protocols, so as not to disable
TLS 1.3.
• Provide an explicit cipher suite list (Mozilla intermediate config
version 5.4).
• Respect the browser’s preferred cipher suite ordering over the
server’s.
• Use FFDHE2048 Diffie-Hellman parameters.
• Disable SSL session tickets.
(SSL stapling is also recommended but SSLStaplingCache cannot be
configured inside a <VirtualHost> block.)

This implementation overrides some of PSA's internal backend
functions to handle `state` value with redis as the standard
way doesn't work because of apple sending required details
in the form of POST request.
Includes a mixin test class that'll be useful for testing
Native auth flow.
Thanks to Mateusz Mandera for the idea of using redis and
other important work on this.

Now that we have production support for Ubuntu Focal, we update the
documentation to state our support for it.
(We also drop deprecated Xenial and Stretch from supported platforms).
We're migrating to using the cleaner zulip.com domain, which involves
changing all of our links from ReadTheDocs and other places to point
to the cleaner URL.
This reimplements our Zoom video call integration to use an OAuth
application. In addition to providing a cleaner setup experience,
especially on zulipchat.com where the server administrators can have
done the app registration already, it also fixes the limitation of the
previous integration that it could only have one call active at a time
when set up with typical Zoom API keys.
Fixes#11672.

This section at the top was clearly written before the documentation
at the bottom existed, and hasn't been updated to point to the
now-existent docs below.
Add the link, rather than directing to #production-help.
Also make sure our documentation for upgrading is reasonable for
Stretch => Buster.
Our reasoning for deprecating support for these releases is as follows:
* Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial reached desktop EOL last year; and will reach
EOL on the server in about a year.
* Debian Stretch will each EOL in 2020 (the precise date is unclear in
Debian's documentation, but based on past precedent it's in the next
few months, perhaps July 2020).
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianReleases#Production_Releases
* Both Ubuntu 16.04 and Debian Stretch use Python 3.5 as the system
Python, which will reach EOL in September 2020 (and we're already
seeing various third-party dependencies that we use drop support for
them).
* While there is LTS support for these older releases, it's not clear it's
going to be worth the added engineering effort for us to maintain EOL
releases of the base OSes that we support.
* We (now) have clear upgrade instructions for moving to Debian Buster
and Ubuntu 18.04.
I found the solution by simply trying out EMAIL_USE_SSL and it
worked. I had problems with sending emails (did not work at all, there
wasn't even a connection going on - I checked with tcpdump. Then I
found this: To use port 465, you need to call
smtplib.SMTP_SSL(). Currently, it looks like Django only uses
smtplib.SMTP() (source: https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/9575).
Fixes#14350.
This has for a while been our only active Google Groups mailing list,
and given that folks will guess security@ as our security contact, we
might as well just standardize on that.
Also tweak some ambiguous text; it wouldn't be appropriate for us to
issue a CVE for e.g. an operational issue only affecting us.
This addresses confusion we had with some organizations where they
were surprised that with only LDAP enabled, the "invite more users"
feature was available.
Fixes#11685.
This legacy cross-realm bot hasn't been used in several years, as far
as I know. If we wanted to re-introduce it, I'd want to implement it
as an embedded bot using those common APIs, rather than the totally
custom hacky code used for it that involves unnecessary queue workers
and similar details.
Fixes#13533.
