[jdev] new XMPP server in Ruby

[Eric Will]

I haven't personally used every jabberd out there, so I'm not sure. I
currently use ejabberd, and afaik you can't do that with it. I used jabberd2
a long time ago, and it was a system-wide install as well. If you know of
any other project like this I'll reword the site, as I'm definitely not
trying to take credit for a feature that was implemented a long time ago. :P
