Setting up DJabberd server for Fastmail

Hi,

I'm setting up a DJabberd server for Fastmail.  One of our
interesting "challenges" is that we want to support
approximately 8000 different domains.

One approach I have considered is creating 8000 separate
vhosts.  I tried that and it failed, but I suspect that's
largely because I didn't have the LocalVHost transport
in the vhosts.


Anyway, I've put together a couple of patches to support
keeping track of the domain on a per-connection basis, and
passing the jid back from login so the domain can be read
from the connection and set into the jid.


Other fun things I'm working on - more flexible vcard
storage, a "ping" responder (just because I get sick of
seeing the error messages)


Should I put these things together as patches and send them
to the list, or do you have another preferred way to handle
them?

Bron.
