@bender That was one of the inputs into my research 🧐 So that's already factored in.

Mathieu Pasquet: Poezio 0.15 / 0.15.1
About three years since the last version, poezio 0.15 (and 0.15.1 to address
a small packaging mishap, version numbers are cheap) was released yesterday!
Poezio is a terminal-based XMPP client which aims to replicate the
feeling of terminal-based IRC clients such as irssi or weechat; to
this end, poezio originally only supported multi-user chats.
Not a lot this time around… Maybe next time?

Holly Hill - Long run: 12.06 miles, 00:09:43 average pace, 01:57:15 duration
did not sleep last night. the bed was not too comfortable and i was burning up for some reason. the run went well. it was a decent temperature and i kept the pace pretty moderate (mainly around a 9:30). hit two bridges going back-and-forth between daytona. i did walk a bit around mile ten to recollect myself but a good run nonetheless.
my daughter got first all-around in her gymnastic meet and did really well on all events, too!
