I have two points, which might or might not be important for the
freedombox:
1. ejabberd needs to be restarted when adding a new domain to serve.
This drops all
current connections, which is annoying. Don't know if this hurts in a
freedombox
setup.
2. prosody has less documentation, especially on somewhat special
(non-core)
components.
To run prosody on squeeze, I had to make a local backport, as prosody
is a rapidly
moving target and some rather important functionality (namely external
auth) is
only available in newer versions than what is found in stable. But I
guess the
freedombox is based on wheezy atm anyway.
Cheers,
Mika
