Started setting up an #XMPP server (#prosody #prosodyIM). Next steps: figure out/fix auto encryption in #dinoIM, allow attachments, store 1 week of message history. And for the later future: figure out audio/video calling? (From what I've read, we can do that without #SIP)
@zachdecook It took me a few attempts but I was able to get a Prosody server up and running. I tried to document my steps and configuration if you're interested:

The folks in the MUC room are quite helpful if you run into issues.
@samir the only trouble I've had so far is with sending attachments. Looks like you have #mod_http_file_share enabled (I'm not on trunk, but could use community #mod_http_upload for #XEP0363). I think this means the sysadmin could view any attachment? So I would want to wait for #XEP0454 in #prosody?
@zachdecook If I recall correct, I too was originally using #mod_http_upload but was given the suggestion on the Prosody chatroom to try out http_file_share. So far, I haven't had any issues but it's rare that I share files on XMPP. And for my use case, trunk has been pretty stable.
