Sugar collaboration is built on top of [[wikipedia:Jabber|XMPP (Jabber)]], an open and extensible [[wikipedia:instant messaging|instant messaging]] protocol. Collaboration via a server is more scalable than over link local connections. This server is a Jabber server (with a few extra modules and patches) and is usually included in the XS schoolserver for school deployments.

Sugar collaboration is built on top of [[wikipedia:Jabber|XMPP (Jabber)]], an open and extensible [[wikipedia:instant messaging|instant messaging]] protocol. Collaboration can use either Link-local connections, or a server.

Community members such as G1G1 XO users, and developers, can use a Jabber server for collaboration without needing the rest of the schoolserver functionality. In this way, "mesh view" can be extended over the Internet for regional or global communities.

Collaboration via a server is more scalable, but requires special Sugar support in the server.

 

A server can be set up using the [[School_Server|XS school server]] for school deployments.

Currently the only Jabber server that works for Sugar collaboration is [[wikipedia:ejabberd|ejabberd]] with Sugar-specific patches. See [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Installing_ejabberd Installing ejabberd] for instructions on installing and configuring it.

Two different Jabber server programs are known to work with Sugar; prosody and ejabberd.
