JOSL looks good, I've got some people here looking into what would best support our interests. (there are others in consideration) Anyway, it's still HIGHLY preliminary right now, and I'm looking for people to test on a variety of platforms, give me feedback, and force me to make this a really solid piece of software.

Are you doing it as a server or command line call? As for packaging, I think org.jabber.xdb is prefferable since that's what it is. And anyone familiar to Jabber server will know that xdb is the backend to Jabberd. Licensing -- Most of the Jabber stuff falls under JOSL but an Apache or BSD license would be ok by most people, but GPL probably wouldn't (at least it would limit to the places where it might get used). However, note that under JOSL, Apache/BSD people can take it, & compile it into their code & can add proprietary extensions. That may or may not matter to y'all.
