[JDEV] using roommaker

[Rob Davis :: Solaris Media]

Thanks David,

I'm pleased the minor Perl changes were useful - you must be running a
different version of Perl (probably newer!) than us.

I didn't realise that I could create the persistent rooms with Exodus
though - I'll give that a try. Do I need to be the admin user specified
in jabber.xml?

(might be worth adding that to the MUC documentation BTW cos I had no
idea it was the intended method).

Thanks

Rob



As per other email, this should now be fixed.

If you configure the room you created with exodus to be persistent, it
is exactly the same as if you'd made the room with roommaker.

Regards,

  David
