# GNU social v2.0.0 - THIS. IS. GNU SOCIAL!!!
|
||||
|
||||
Release name chosen after 300 by Frank Miller where the main protagonist Leonidas, King of Sparta, declines peace with the
|
||||
Persians, after being disrespected, by shouting at the Persian Messenger "This is Sparta!" and kicking him into a large well
|
||||
proceeded by the killing of the other Persian messengers.
|
||||
|
||||
## For users/sysadmins
|
||||
|
||||
### Web server changes
|
||||
- GS is now structurely divided in includes and public
|
||||
- New media handling system, new important settings, refer to CONFIGURE doc and web server conf
|
||||
- `$config['site']['x-static-delivery']`
|
||||
- You must also review the [attachments section of CONFIGURE](https://notabug.org/diogo/gnu-social/src/new_modules_system/DOCUMENTATION/SYSTEM_ADMINISTRATORS/CONFIGURE.md#attachments).
|
||||
- OEmbed upgraded to Embed plugin (and now we provide Open Graph information too)
|
||||
- Composer was integrated
|
||||
|
||||
### Functionality
|
||||
- Restored broken built-in plugins
|
||||
- A more powerful Plugins management tool for sysadmins
|
||||
|
||||
### Federation
|
||||
- Added ActivityPub support
|
||||
- Enabled the search box to import remote notices and profiles
|
||||
- Direct messages
|
||||
|
||||
### Load and Storage
|
||||

|
||||
- Run session garbage collection
|
||||
- Cleanup Email Registration
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## For developers
|
||||
|
||||
### APIs
|
||||
- New Internal Session Handler and consequently a new API, migration should be simple enough
|
||||
- Dropped support for StatusNet plugins, devs should now use GNUsocial class instead
|
||||
|
||||
### Modules
|
||||
- Composer was integrated
|
||||
- GS is now structurely divided in includes and public
|
||||
- A more powerful Plugins management tool for sysadmins
|
||||
|
||||
Now plugins can be installed via the sysadmin UI. Therefore, now you should package your plugins either in tar or zip. The
|
||||
package name must be the same as the plugin's internal name. For example, a plugin
|
||||
named `Chuck Norris (social@chuck.norris)` must be in a file named: `ChuckNorris.tar`.
|
||||
Inside there MUST be two directories, one named 'includes' with everything that should be unpacked
|
||||
in `local/plugins/{plugin_name}` and another named 'public' with everything that should be unpacked
|
||||
in `public/local/plugins/{plugin_name}`.
