v2 onions are insecure, deprecated and going away. v3 names are
unfortunately longer and more difficult to remember, but should
be more resistant to attack than v2 ones.

The new IPC stuff doesn't work without Storable or Sereal.
Storable is part of the standard library since Perl 5.8, so
we'll put a hard dependency on it for distros that package
it separately.
Data::Dumper is also part of the standard library, and
PublicInbox::MboxReader uses it, and it's frequently useful
during development.
We'll also trim down INSTALL for standard library modules so
it's hopefully less daunting for new users.
Development dependencies are noted in HACKING, now.
Email::MIME is only used for maintainer tests, so it's only
documented in HACKING.

Inline::C works during module load time, so "just-ahead-of-time"
is a better description of it than "just-in-time". I don't
think "JAOT" is a well-known enough acronym, so it's worth
spelling it out.

`make test' is annoyingly slow, and `make check-run' works
wonders for improving the edit && test cycle.

|
There will probably be a 1.4 release in a few days...
|
|
Since v2 inboxes contain multiple git repositories, avoid the
use of the word "repository" when referring to inboxes as a
whole in most places.

|
Bad things happen when user data can control our stack size.

It took me years to discover this change in Perl 5.6,
maybe other potential hackers are in the same boat.
|
|
Inline::C seems alright, so we might use it more since it still
allows end users to quickly make changes. Our performance on
rotational disks is also terrible, and could be improved...
|
|
It's still available, but no point in advertising something
which increases the dependency on a centralized subscriber list.
In fact, it's actively against the goal of promoting resistance
against centralization.
|
|
It's been a few years since this was updated...
|
|
Hopefully more folks can download and run public-inbox,
nowadays.
|
|
Also, at least add one of the Tor mirrors (the rest will
be discoverable through the mirrors themselves).
|
|
Reiterating reasons behind what we do might help drive our point
across better.
|
|
Strongly emphasize decentralization, as that was actually the
main impetus for my interest in git.
|
|
We'll continue developing and supporting ssoma, but it's unlikely to
gain much adoption in its current form; so stop cluttering up our
own README with it.
|
|
Document some of the stranger choices I've made.
