Eloy Lafuente (stronk7) fbb0767536 MDL-69475 versions: bump all versions and requires in master
version = 2021052500 release version
requires= 2021052500 same than version

Why 20210525? (25th May 2021) ?

Because master is going to be Moodle 4.0, to be released
on November 2021. And, until then, we are going to have
a couple of "intermediate" releases:

- Moodle 3.10 to be released 9th November 2020. (2020110900)

  This version will be using versions from today to 2020110900
  (once it's released the YYYYMMDD part stops advancing).

- Moodle 3.11 to be released 10th May 2021. (2021051000)

  This version will be using versions from 3.10 release to 2021051000
  (once it's released the YYYYMMDD part stops advancing).

That means that all versions from today to 2021051000 are going
to be used by those 2 "intermediate" releases (3.10 and 3.11).

And we cannot use them in master, because it's forbidden to have
any overlapping of versions between branches (or different upgrade
paths will fail).

So, get that 2021051000, let's add it a couple of weeks to cover
the on-sync period (or a 2 weeks delay max!) and, the first version
that master can "own" in exclusive (without any overlap) is, exactly,
25th May 2021, hence our 20210525.

Official Chat Module for Moodle
------------------------------

The chat module now supports a backend daemon for
more efficiency.

It's still buggy and being worked on, but if you
want to test it and help out here are some quick
instructions:

1) Admin -> Config -> Modules -> Chat -> Settings

2) Set the method to "sockets" and set up the ports etc

3) Start the server like this (from the Unix command line):

   cd moodle/mod/chat
   php chatd.php --start &

4) Go to a chat room in Moodle and open it as normal.

KNOWN PROBLEMS

 - User list is not always working
 - Some browsers (eg Safari) cause lines to be repeated
   by 10 - 20 times
 - Occasionally "Document was empty" messages

Help solving these very welcome!
