Jabber is an open XML protocol for real-time exchange of messages and
presence notification between any two points on the Internet. The first
application of Jabber technology is an asynchronous, extensible instant
messaging platform, and an IM network that offers functionality similar
to legacy IM systems such as AIM, ICQ, MSN, and Yahoo.
This is a complete rewrite of the original jabberd.
by moving the inclusion of buildlink3.mk files outside of the protected
region. This bug would be seen by users that have set PREFER_PKGSRC
or PREFER_NATIVE to non-default values.
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES should be ordered so that for any package in the
list, that package doesn't depend on any packages to the left of it
in the list. This ordering property is used to check for builtin
packages in the correct order. The problem was that including a
buildlink3.mk file for <pkg> correctly ensured that <pkg> was removed
from BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and appended to the end. However, since the
inclusion of any other buildlink3.mk files within that buildlink3.mk
was in a region that was protected against multiple inclusion, those
dependencies weren't also moved to the end of BUILDLINK_PACKAGES.

Changes:
0.9.18:
=======
Upgrade release because of couple serious bugs in the 0.9.17. Especially
backup router had stability problems with 0.9.17. This was due to a rekey bug
when performing rekey with PFS, and because of another bug it caused the
backup (and other servers too) to crash. If you are running a normal server
or backup router then ugprading is strongly recommended. If you are running
any kind of server with PFS enabled in rekey, upgrading is recommended.
- Fixed protocol completion handling in connection closing.
- Fixed rekey with PFS to work on backup with disabled connections.
- Fixed CMODE command reply to return the user limit correctly.
- Fixed the watch notify to be called for resuming clients.
0.9.17:
=======
- Implemented the user limit to the CMODE_CHANGE notify and to the CMODE
and JOIN command replies, as defined in the new protocol specs.
- Implemented the public key support to WATCH command, as defined in
the new protocol specs.
- Added asynchronous connecting to remote router/server.
- Fixed the WHOIS public key deleting.
- Several other bugfixes were also made.
