JumpInChat development update

The last few days has mostly been damage control after some issues were discovered since the last update. This included some disconnection issues, which I have yet to figure out, and the first fatal crash of the server. So thanks for who managed that!

So, progress so far includes:

An issue with IP addresses was fixed after work reconfiguring some infrastructure.
Shored up some API endpoints.
Improved the way the backend talks to the media server, which should make everything more stable.

Next in the queue is to fix reconnection, which has been a persistent issue, in what I hope to be a more robust way. Additionally, some better error messages around when a user loses connection and whether it’s something that requires a refresh.

Infrastructure upgrades have been pushed back and in it’s place are some tasks to make maintenance more automated and generally more robust.

Testing still needs to be done, so create a chatroom and invite some folks and talk and stuff.
