Dear all,
Galene 0.8 is available by doing
git clone -b galene-0.8 https://github.com/jech/galene
For more information about the Galene videoconference server, please see
https://galene.org
The main news in this version is native support for the WHIP protocol.
There's also support for passwords hashed using BCrypt (more secure but
more CPU-intensive than the default PBKDF2) and a number of minor fixes.
The switch to VP9 didn't work out, since there are some issues with VP9
congestion control that I haven't had the leisure to debug, so VP8 is
still the default codec.
