14 - [Issue #1841](https://issues.prosody.im/1841): In Prosody 0.12, this module conflicts with mod_server_contact_info (both will run, but it may affect the ability of some implementations to read the server/contact information provided). To work around this issue, the [mod_server_contact_info](https://modules.prosody.im/mod_server_contact_info) community module can be used.
