Almost all of the code available at jabber.org enables you to do this.
Specifically, the JOSL (Jabber Open Source License) is *not* viral in the
way that the GPL is, so you can build commercial software on top of it and
you will not be required to open your source. However, if you make
modifications to the JOSL'd code that you download (e.g., to the core
server code or libraries), you must share those changes.
