Friendica 3.4.3 released

Dear Federation,

we are happy to announce the release of Friendica 3.4.3, the last planed minor release of the <span>Lily of the valley</span> family before the release of Friendica 3.5 in spring 2016. As such version 3.4.3 bundles a couple bug fixes with a number of new features. For the full list, please read the https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fabrixxm/friendica/156be7a17b5377ed1460060a9b39e7763b8e7a26/CHANGELOG, but let me highlight some things from the long list.

And just a hint, in case you muss the little flag for language settings: have a look into the basic settings of your account, you will find the language settings there from now on.

How to Update?

If you have an installation using the git repository directly, all you have to do is a git pull in the friendica directory and the addons directory. That will fetch the new version from the master branch and you are ready to go. If you want to use the bleeding edge code from the development branch of Friendica 3.5 Asparagus, checkout the develop branch in your repository.

Alternatively you can find a https://github.com/friendica/friendica/archive/3.4.3.zip file of the released version of friendica at https://github.com/friendica/friendica/releases/tag/3.4.3 for download. Just unzip it on your local machine and replace the files on your server with the new files.

Have a look at the congress wiki for details on the https://events.ccc.de/congress/2015/wiki/Session:Friendica_-_A_decentralized,_federated_Social_Network. A great opportunity to meet some of the Friendica developers and other users in the real world.
