It works on jabber.sl.o. There are bunch of glitches in 0.90-94 related
to jabber. But until now, I'm tending to tkink that it is bugs/miss-using
in sugar shell code rather than issues related to jabber server.
For Harmonic Distribution-0.2 (next month), I'm planing to settle these
issues down for using it as a basis for Puno pilot distro.

I didn't compare ejaberd and prosody carefully, but one thing for sure,
with ejaberd instance for jabber.sl.o, I had to keep an eye on ejaberd
on weekly basis (taking into account that weekly cron job reset the
whole ejaberd db anyway, because ejaberd is becoming slow and taking more
memory for tmp users). With prosody, I just started it, and the
resources consumption is stable and low (cpu ~0-7, RES 200M max).
