[jdev] ruby xmppd, and Psi

We're defining it as http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace, which, as
Peter pointed out, should be ok.

Well, many servers are liberal in what they accept, so I wouldn't
exclude that Psi is wrong. But still, an example stream would give us
a definitive answer on that. We've had problems before with quoting in
the challenge/response.

Just to be sure I'm looking at the right code: what version of Psi are
you using? What distribution? Do you have qca-(cyrus)-sasl installed?
