Summary     : OpenSource server implementation of the Jabber protocols
Description :
The jabberd project aims to provide an open-source server implementation of
the Jabber protocols for instant messaging and XML routing. The goal of this
project is to provide a scalable, reliable, efficient and extensible server
that provides a complete set of features and is up to date with the latest
protocol revisions.
jabberd 2 is the next generation of the jabberd server. It has been
rewritten from the ground up to be scalable, architecturally sound, and to
support the latest protocol extensions coming out of the JSF.

This packages defaults to use pam and sqlite.

    There were also a lot of changes to the Fedora package itself, thus you might want to read this changes too:

        * new upstream release jabberd 2.2.11
        * fix script-without-shebang errors
        * preserve timestamp of ChangeLog while converting to UTF8
        * use %%{_mandir} macro for manpages
        * create a new source file for the PAM info instead of writing it on the fly
        * install all tools provided by upstream to /usr/share/jabberd/
        * remove storage driver replacement, since 2.2.10 sqlite is the default
        * remove dependency to gc-devel
        * remove unneccessary defines for sysconfdir and don't use unneccessary macros
        * remove static libraries
        * fix a lot of rpmlint errors and warnings
        * rename file jabberd to jabberd.init to make 'fedpkg mockbuild' possible

    Note this update changes the default backend from BDB to SQLite. Thus if you're setting up a new Jabber service with this package, have an eye on this.

    You're also recommended to diff and review your configuration files manually.
