[Galene] ANNOUNCE: Galene 1.1

[Juliusz Chroboczek]

Dear all,

Galene 1.1 is available by doing

    git clone -b galene-1.1 https://github.com/jech/galene

This version accumulates almost a year of minor changes.  Notable news are
that onboarding is simplified thanks to the "galenectl initial-setup"
command, stateful token can now apply to a hierarchy of groups or even to
the whole server, and peer-to-peer file transfer has been made more
efficient (it should now be possible to transfer files that are larger
than available RAM).

The changelog follows.

21 June 2026: Galene 1.1

  * Implemented "galenectl initial-setup".
  * Implemented global tokens.
  * Added options "-unrestricted-tokens" and "-auto-subgroups" to
    galenectl group commands.
  * Reworked the documentation.
  * Fixed a bug that could cause multiple reads of the token file.
  * Explicitly use blobs for file transfer, this should allow

    all along, but the spec changed behind our back.

  * Added support for include-inferiors in cryptographic tokens.  Thanks
    to izeau.
  * Fixed an issue with the chat window and the users' list disappearing
    on mobile.  Thanks to Kirill smelkov.
  * Fixed an issue that made it impossible to add a wildcard user to a
    group with no users.  Thanks to Andrea Zucchelli.
  * Added some more protection against denial of service attacks.  Thanks
    to Vinayak Mishra.
  * Fixed some race condtions in permission handling.  Thanks to Vinayak
    Mishra.
