Hi,
Of course I it would be useful if any other person would like to help on
the process of improving jabberd2 :)
Now that I have submited the patch for ldapvcard, how can I find out
whats happening with deletes using roster publish? I expect that when
the jabberPublishItem is changed from 1 to 0 the user is deleted. I
would like to know in which side of the connection the problem is,
server or client.
Thanks for you help!

Which solutions is better from your point of view? My knowledge of the
xmpp standard is little. I can try to make the patches and test them
on our infrastructure.
This does not really have anything to do with XMPP standard.
For XMPP user authentication is opaque and abstracted to SASL.
It's a job of SASL backend (in this case based on LDAP) to verify user
credentials, and once SASL says you are a JID you are pretending to be,
you are in.
Having said that, I will mention that I have not much experience with
LDAP and the one I have is rusty.
Thus I still have your proposed patch pending review, as on a first
brief look through, I couldn't decide it's validity.
Please do work on LDAP backend in whatever way pleases you.
If you keep backward compatibility, I will gladly accept patches adding
new functionality. (Preferably via GitHub pull request.)
Also please do discuss your concerns on this mailing list, as others may
have viable experience; but addressing these to me personally may
discourage others joining in to the discussion. ;-)
P.S. I need to mention, that I would be rapturous if someone would
finally merge both LDAP backends to one.
