Package: jabberd14
Severity: wishlist

Today I've upgraded my old jabber server upto jabber14.

Thanks for You work! I intended to make this package for a long time,
but had no time. Thanks again!

A few remarks:

1. First of all i thought for a long time why file /etc/default/jabberd14
doesn't work. Only looking through /etc/init.d/jabberd14 helped me to
understand that i had to set chmod +x on this file. There is no file
in /etc/default requires x-permissions. I think that init file must
check -r permission instead -x :)

2. Old jabber server had easy config file /etc/jabber/jabber.cfg,
which allowed to set basic options without editing jabber.xml. For
example hostname. We can add option -h hostname into $PARAMS 
/etc/default/jabberd14, but old variant was more serviceable. Could
You return support this file?

3. I think that two cases must be adjust easyly:
 - hostname (see p.2)
 - control of registration possibility. Jabber.xml allows include
   additional cmd-line options using tags
    <jabberd:cmdline flag="NAME">
   Could You change basic Jabber.xml for user could enable/disable
   registration possibility using /etc/default/jabberd14 (or
   jabber.cfg)?

   I think it is very simple:

   + <jabberd:cmdline flag="R">
     <register xmlns="jabber:iq:register"  notify="yes">
       <instructions>Choose a username and password to register with this 
server.</instructions>
       <username/>
       <name/>
       <email/>
     </register>
   + </jabberd:cmdline>

   Am I right?
