[JDEV] ANNOUNCE: jabberd 2.0.0 alpha 2 available for download

[Robert Norris]

The jabberd project team is pleased to announce the release of jabberd
2.0.0 alpha 2. This is the second in a series alpha releases of the
upcoming jabberd 2 server.

The server is a complete rewrite, with none of the old 1.4 code
included. This makes the transition non-trivial. A future release will
contain documentation and tools for migrating a 1.4 installation to a
2.0 installation.

Not all of the features are in yet, however the system is quite
functional. It should not be used in a production environment yet, as it
hasn't had a lot of testing.

Changelog since a1:

    * reconnect code added to resolver, c2s, and sm.  [reatmon]
    * jabber:iq:privacy (JEP-0016) support [rob]
    * jabber:iq:private (JEP-0049) support [rob]
    * message echo support [rob]
    * jabberd wrapper script [reatmon]
    * new c2s/sm command protocol [rob]
    * transaction/recovery support for Berkeley DB modules [rob]

NOTE: The database format has changed significantly since a1. If you
have a a1 installation, the database will not work any longer.

Downloads are available here:

Bug reports and feature requests should be submitted using the tools on
jabberstudio.org. Anything else should be sent to jabberd at jabberstudio.org.

This is also a convenient place to call for contributors. There's still
quite a bit of work to be done, particularly in the area of
documentation. If you'd like to help, take a look at the TODO file, and
drop me a line.

Have fun!

Rob.
