Tasks

This is an overview of the tasks to do for the completion of the project.

TODO:

• Integrate jabber with other services

  • Idea: See nearby fellows via Jabber

  • New versions of Moinmoin can notify users via jabber (besides via email)
  • Other ideas?

• Evaluate ejabberd's pubsub feature: can it be useful for us?

  • http://www.ejabberd.im/mod_pubsub-usage

  • http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0060.html

  • http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0163.html

DONE:

• Test LDAP integration on current jabber 1.4.x server (negative result)

• Finalize the choice between jabber server solutions

  • gollo: ejabberd looks most promising for me, because it
    • meets almost all requirements
    • seems to be quite uncomplicated to set up
    • the documentation looks good to me
• Set up a test install and test LDAP auth and possible new features
• Allow connections for user behind firewalls * Migrate the old installation
