mod_http_muc_log: Fix exception on lack of trailing slash in room path A request to /room leads to the match call returning nil which in turn calls nodeprep(nil). In Prosody 0.11.x this does nothing and simply returns the nil, while in 0.12 it is an error. Now it redirects to the calendar view at /room/ - even for non-existant rooms. Discovered at a deployment with http_paths = { muc_log = "/" } and requests to /robots.txt and similar, which now result in a uses redirect before returning 404.

Introduction
============

This module largely duplicates the functionality of the standard
mod\_announce that is included with Prosody. It was developed for
compatibility with some clients (e.g. iChat) that do not support ad-hoc
commands or sending to JIDs with the format
'example.com/announce/online'.

It may also be useful in other specific cases.

Configuration
=============

    Component "broadcast@example.com" "broadcast"

By default, only server admins are allowed to post to this address. You
can override this, by specifying the 'broadcast\_senders' option:

    Component "broadcast@example.com" "broadcast"
        broadcast_senders = { "user1@example.com", "user2@example.com" }

Compatibility
=============

  ------ -------
  0.9    Works
  0.10   Works
