Happy Software Freedom Day! Today we're pleased to announce the release of MediaGoblin 0.12.0.
MediaGoblin is a free software media publishing platform that anyone can run. You can think of it as a self-hosted alternative to Flickr, YouTube or SoundCloud This release resolves two significant issues in the Celery backend media processing. The first was causing processed media to be marked as failed and the second was inhibiting useful error messages. We've also resolved installation issues caused by deprecated upstream code in the Werkzeug and jsonschema libraries. We've added provisional `gmg serve` and `gmg celery` commands to simplify deployment. These commands may change in the future and are not yet recommended in the deployment documentation. If your deployment is already running smoothly, there's no reason to switch at this stage.
