Some news to wrap up this week.

A few funny bugs have been found during fiddling with Prosody console (via 
mod_admin_telnet). If you needed for some odd reason "internal_plain" 
authentication, user:create() will fail to create the user, as there is no 
proper handling 
<https://hg.prosody.im/trunk/file/3f38f4735c7a/plugins/mod_auth_internal_plain.lua#l82>
 
in mod_auth_internal_plain for case when password is nil. The default 
"internal_hashed" handles such properly, disabling the account until the 
password is created. The fix is coming soon.
*I will not use libIDN in the builds*, neither modern Linux builds of 
Prosody do.
Following the bookworm branch of Debian, my choice goes to libICU. In case 
of Debian, their package depends on ICU version 72, while on Windows 
version 58 (the last officialy compatible with Windows Vista) seems to work 
without problems. I might raise the used version number for security 
reasons, but it would require investigations in case of presence of kernel 
extensions in the system. When the latest compatible with 'extended' Vista 
will be found, I'll move up to this version. Stay tuned.

As always, I hope to hear any feedback from maintainers regarding minimum 
system requirements and related stuff for future Windows builds, as well as 
from current users.
