I've been working on improvements to orbit-db, ipfs-log and Orbit. The message history fetching is |

Nothing to write home about for me this week. But the IPFS Meeting on Wednesday will be my contribution. |
I've implemented dictionary handling for pako.js (pure JavaScript port of zlib), to enable full compatibility between Node.js and the brower in js-libp2p-spdy. |

The IPFS Lisbon community group organised the second "Research & Development Meetup"The IPFS Lisbon community had their second "Research & Development Meetup", hosted by Uniplaces (https://www.uniplaces.com). The focus was "The Distributed Web" and "Machine Learning + Artificial Intelligence for Recommender Algorithms", with talks by David Dias and João Ascensão, respectively.

DNS outageWe're using DigitalOcean for providing ipfs.io DNS. On Tuesday DigitalOcean DNS was hit by a severe outage lasting hours, which took the public gateway at ipfs.io down. We switched to DNSimple in an ad-hoc fashion and brought ipfs.io back while DigitalOcean was still down, but this incident obviously hit us on the wrong foot a bit. We'll be working to never get taken down this way again. Here's a few things we'll do:
We'll post a more detailed postmorten on our blog in the next few days. Nginx metricsOur internal metrics dashboard didn't previously have HTTP request/response metrics from nginx's point of view, but only from IPFS's and multireq's point of view. (Multireq is our v04x/v03x multiplexing proxy). Nginx itself provides finegrained metrics only through their commercial subscriptions. We're now using mtail to parse metrics from nginx access logs and expose them to Prometheus. @lgierth will also contribute the |
Meeting with NYC Mesh@jbenet and @lgierth met with the fine folks of nycmesh.net. For the past two years they've been building a community Wifi network in New York City. We had lots of great conversation about wireless mesh networking and IPFS. If you live in NYC, you should come attend their meetups! |
The outage thing should probably be placed rather prominently |

Lots of package manager news:
Discussion on using Bitcoin + IPFS for Decentralized Citizen Journalism: http://thebitcoinnews.com/decentralised-citizen-journalism-we-discuss-the-impact-of-bitcoin-and-ipfs/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter @ christianlundkvist (Christian Lundkvist) gave a talk on IPFS at http://www.meetup.com/BitDevsNYC/events/229130058/ "IPFS meme of the week" ? |
https://github.com/hydrusnetwork/hydrus "A personal booru-style media tagger that can import files and tags from your hard drive and popular websites. Content can be shared with other users via user-run servers." Over the last 10 or so updates, the dev of this has been implementing support for ipfs, and now has quick a bit of ipfs related features, which would more than warrant a inclusion in the weekly (Maybe in the next hour or so I might compile a list what what ipfs related features are in it and update this post, no promises though) |
@pokeball99 Thanks! I'm going to bundle this into the next newsletter. |
@pokeball99 Any word on those features? |
@RichardLitt oh yea sorry about that, been bust for the past while, just go though the last 10 or so updates on the releases and that should show you all of the additions |
@pokeball99 Hmm. On second thought, I'm not sure this warrants inclusion. If you have anything specific you want included that has a relatively high wow factor, pass it on. I'm not sure "x tool now has y amount of IPFS features" is enough, at the moment. |
Thank you, though! |
@RichardLitt haha, well fair enough, only even bothered mentioning it here due to whyrusleeping saying it was a good idea to |
Put stuff in here!
@whyrusleeping you gave a talk, I believe?
