Jabber server - ejabberd or jabberd2?

I'm going to run my own jabber server on my Ubuntu server.

Should I use rather ejabberd or jabberd2 daemon?
Which of them is better?
What are the differences between them?


Solution 1:

It depends very much on your needs. What are your expectations? General comparison is available on Wikipedia

If you're just looking for a simple xmpp server for your private server, I would recommend Prosody. It's lightweight, easy to configure, supports SSL, and has a helpful community. You can get it up and running literally in minutes.
