Is this project still active?

[Austin Brkich]

Are people still working on this project? I stumbled upon it since I
was wanting a fully customizable chat server, and so far the lack of
documentation is pushing me away.

I don't know how many people's still active on the list but I know some
people are using djabberd on their production sites, so don't worry (if
you know a little perl).

[Dean Hamstead]

judging by the mail archives there are people still using it

you can see on the djabberd trac that code hasnt been checked in that
recently. http://code.sixapart.com/trac/djabberd/

however, checking in code doesnt mean a project isnt active!

the code quality i have found to be excellent, and although the
documentation is somewhat scarce - ive been pleased with djabberd so far.

Is it possible then for someone to explain how to go about setting up
djabberd? I know a thing or two about perl I just can't make heads or
tails on setting this up.

The djabberd project seems to be like a secret priesthood. :) Perhaps if
you receive some assistance, you could write up a little HOWTO?

I think there's a sample config somewhere in the distribution for basic configurations, no?

For us we use djabberd because it was easy to integrate with the LDAP server (so everyone can see everyone and we have our regular authentication etc). It's probably changed a bunch since, but we started with a variation of the sixatalk example: http://code.sixapart.com/trac/djabberd/browser/trunk/examples/sixatalk
