mod_bookmarks2: Fix handling of nick and password elements This form of child retrieval fails when the stanza elements internally don't have an 'xmlns' attribute, which can happen sometimes for some reason, including when they have been constructed via the stanza builder API. When that is the case then the explicit namespace arguemnt does not match the nil value of the internal attribute. Calling `:get_child()` without the namespace argument does the right thing here, with both nil and the parent namespace as valid values for the internal attribute.

summary: Replace LaTeX markup in messages with embedded images
...

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

This module intercepts messages between users and into chatrooms, and
attaches a links to a rendered version of any
[LaTeX](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LaTeX) in the message. This
requires client support for
[XHTML-IM](http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0071.html), and fetching
images via HTTP.

This module was tested with the [Gajim](http://gajim.org/) client.

Details
=======

There is no configuration (yet). The module uses
[MathTran](http://www.mathtran.org/) to render the LaTeX.

Todo
====

-   Support for other rendering services (easy)
-   Provide a built-in rendering service (e.g. mimetex)
-   Send the images inline over XMPP (little client support at the
    moment)

Compatibility
