mod_pubsub_feeds: Track latest timestamp seen in feeds instead of last poll This should ensure that an entry that has a publish timestmap after the previously oldest post, but before the time of the last poll check, is published to the node. Previously if an entry would be skipped if it was published at 13:00 with a timestamp of 12:30, where the last poll was at 12:45. For feeds that lack a timestamp, it now looks for the first post that is not published, assuming that the feed is in reverse chronological order, then iterates back up from there.

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

On a server with public registration it is usually desirable to prevent
registration of certain "reserved" accounts, such as "admin".

This plugin allows you to reserve individual usernames, or those
matching certain patterns. It also allows you to ensure that usernames
conform to a certain pattern.

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

Enable the module as any other:

    modules_enabled = {
      "block_registrations";
    }

You can then set some options to configure your desired policy:

  Option                         Default             Description
  ------------------------------ ------------------- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  block_registrations_users      *See source code*   A list of reserved usernames
  block_registrations_matching   `{ }`               A list of [Lua patterns](http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html#5.4.1) matching reserved usernames (slower than block_registrations_users)
  block_registrations_require    `nil`               A pattern that registered user accounts MUST match to be allowed

Some examples:

    block_registrations_users = { "admin", "root", "xmpp" }
    block_registrations_matching = {
      "master$" -- matches anything ending with master: postmaster, hostmaster, webmaster, etc.
    }
    block_registrations_require = "^[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]+$" -- Allow only simple ASCII characters in usernames
