Purpose

These are reasons to use Prosody Jabber/XMPP server:

be humble for consuming memory and CPU resources, especially for the Sugar Server Kit usecase (up to 1K users),
jabber server should be simple to initially configure, and work in an unmaintained mode as long as possible.

Plugins

These plugins are tested against the Prosody 0.8.2 version.

mod_sugar_roster

Provides a global roster, where every user sees all registered accounts.

mod_sugar_muc

The only difference compared with the original mod_muc plugin is a workaround for the telepathy-gabble/Prosody issue.

This plugin should be used instead of mod_muc until the issue is fixed in telepathy-gabble or in Prosody.

Installation

To reuse sugar plugins, copy them to the directory with Prosody plugins. Or, install the prosody-sugar package from the Sugar Server Kit repository.

Configuration

See sugar-server-templates sources for a configuration example.

Getting involved

Report on bugs.
Read the HACKING file to know how to contribute with code.

TODO

Dynamically remove users from the sugar roster if they are offline for some reasonable time (for now, there is a patch to kick offline users from sugar roster asap to workaround buggy sugar-0.9x collab code).
Compare Prosody resources consumption with existing ejabberd.
