[Pkg-xmpp-devel] jabberd2 again

[Willem van den Akker]

Hi,

Thanks for sponsoring it.
I am almost 2 years busy to get a sponsor who can get it into
experimental/stable.
Many sponsors are afraid to do it because Jabberd is an unknown package.
Asking around on the mentorslist to get it into jessie. No response what
so ever.

Anyway, please put it into exp if you think it is in good shape.

Greetings.
