[JDEV] Groups managing

[Chris Pile]

What you want is something like mod_groups:
http://docs.jabber.org/server/html/groups.html

Although not many clients support it properly. WinJab does, JIM almost
does
(http://support.jabber.com/pipermail/jim/2002-February/000290.html).

I wanted to use JIM, so I have had to resort to manually (with a script)
populating each users roster in their user.xml file.

I basically add:

  <query xmlns='jabber:iq:roster' xdbns='jabber:iq:roster'>
    <item jid='user1 at jabber.example.com' name='user1'
subscription='both'>
      <group>Sales</group>
    </item>
    <item jid='user2 at jabber.example.com' name='user2'
subscription='both'>
      <group>Support</group>
    </item>
    </item>
  </query>
