We will be changing which host key types the server redmine.koumbit.net (aka. git.koumbit.net) shows to users connecting via SSH. Starting Monday Feburary 18th 2019 only RSA and ED25519 host keys will be shown. If you had previously connected via SSH and accepted a DSA or ECDSA key, you will need to remove those fingerprints from your known hosts file and accept the RSA/ED25519 host key fingerprint.
Here is an example of how to remove the fingerprints via command-line:
Koumbit will be closed from Saturday, December 22, 2018 to Wednesday, January 2, 2019 inclusively. Happy Holidays to all!

A few weeks ago, a review of the 'Amplification' exhibition at Eastern Block appeared on the website of Canadian Art Magazine.
HTMlles, the biennal media arts and digital culture festival put together by our colleagues at Studio XX begins in a few weeks, starting November 1st! The 2018 edition includes a variety of activities and events throughout Montreal, including the "Code : Corps" digital art exhibition at articule, an artist-run centre, and the "Encrypt your nudes!" workshop at La Centrale Galerie Powerhouse.
If you use WordPress and have recently updated to version 4.9.8, you most likely noticed an announcement on the main page of the Dashboard in regard to the upcoming launch of Gutenberg, the new content editor that will manage the appearance of posts and pages. With its block-based system, Gutenberg aims to make the creation of complex layouts simple and intuitive. You can take a look at this new system on the official WordPress website. (https://wordpress.org/gutenberg/)
Gutenberg, the new WordPress editor, is coming out very soon! To help prepare WordPress users for this significant change, Koumbit is offering a (free!) hands-on workshop where participants can familiarize themselves with this system. Bring your laptop to Koumbit's offices at 5 p.m. on Wednesday, September 19, and a member of the collective will walk you through the process to install the editor and experiment with its features.
