Version 2.7.7.20170314 by SilentVault
Released 14 March, 2017
This version of Spark 2.7.7 by SilentVault.com was forked from Jive Software's
2.7.7 release Github source tree. Custom modifications to the Spark
XMPP client have been made by SilentVault, mainly consisting of these items:
- Provision of a custom Login screen.
- Support for connecting to XMPP servers which are behind
PageKites.
- More robust support for anonymous user handles.
- Integration of Voucher-Safe wallets and SilentVault Exchange operations
by means of the SilentVault plugin (included).
- Provision of a demo SilentVault Marketplace app, the ABC game, by means
of the SVM-ABC plugin (included).
- Plugin versioning and update support.
- Upgrade to Jive Software's Smack 3.4.1 XMPP client library.
- SilentVault branding, including an alternate plugin repository.
- Restricted the list of available themes; set Nimbus as the default look
and feel.
- Made a fix to the Roar plugin which prevents crashes on Linux.
- In the OTR plugin, added capability to delete an existing pubkey, to
accommodate another user who has regenerated their key.
- Removed obsolete Google and Translator plugins.
These modifications should be upwardly compatible with the existing Spark
2.7.7 client distributed by Jive Software, and SilentVault Spark functionality
is a superset of that of the regular Spark client. SilentVault will endeavor
to merge future changes made to the base source by Jive Software in future
releases.
Further information and support can be found on the
SilentVault website.
