[jdev] jabber(d) extension

[Tant Ludovic]

I want to add specific functionnalities in a jabber server.

The jabber server is not already chosen. Short listers are jabberd1.4, 
jabberd 2.0, XCP and Jive Messenger.

The kind of specific functions are:
- when a message is sent from a local jid to another local jid, I want 
to be able to filter or modify the message. For exemple, to do automatic 
translation (because I know the 'from' jid is spanish and the 'to' jid 
is german)
- when a message or a presence is sent from a local jid to specific 
virtual jid, forward it to differents real jid. And when a presence 
query is asked for a virtual jid, reply 'available' if at least one of 
the different real jid is available. In a few word, it is like a mailing 
list.


I am wondering if I have to write a module, specific to the server, or 
write an external component using JEP-0114.

I spent several days searching on the net and in mailing list without 
finding accurate informations (because 'reply', 'filter', 'forward' are 
very common words :-( ).

- Has somebody advices between these two ways (specific module vs 
external component) ?
- Did somebody heard about projects, questions or product with this kind 
of functions?


Regards,

Ludovic
