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
============

Invites are an intermediate way between opening registrations completely and
closing registrations completely.

By letting users invite other users to the server, an administrator exposes
themselves again to the risk of abuse.

To combat that abuse more effectively, this module allows to store (outside
of the user’s information) who created an invite which was used to create the
user’s account.

Details
=======

Add to `modules_enabled`.

Caveats
=======

- The information is not deleted even when the associated user accounts are
  deleted.
- Currently, there is no way to make any use of that information.
