[Pkg-xmpp-devel] jabberd2 again

[Simon Josefsson]

Sounds good!

I have 2.3.2 packaged -- https://gitorious.org/gss/jabberd2-dpkg -- but
to be honest I don't think there is anything significant in there that
isn't already merged.

Yeah, I think a good plan is to:

1) Upload 2.2.17 to unstable
2) Upload 2.3.3 to experimental.
3) Once 2.2.17 is in testing, upload 2.3.3 to unstable.

I'm not sure about backporting 2.2.17 -- would anyone want to run 2.2.17
today?  The 2.3.3 release is supposed to be stable, and 2.2.17 pretty
old.  I would prefer to backport 2.3.3, that's what I would prefer to
run.
