jabberd14 (formerly known as jabberd) is a cross-platform Jabber server daemon. It is free, licensed under open source JOSL and GPL. jabberd2 was intended to be jabberd 1.4's successor but in 2006 the jabberd 1.4 project was still being developed.
The software allows individuals to be a part of the Jabber network of servers or to create their own separate instant messaging network.
Its popularity was initially high among Jabber servers, as for quite some time, jabberd was the only Jabber server software available. Jabberd's popularity has since waned considerably as other Jabber daemons have since been released. Criticisms inspiring other Jabber implementations include jabberd's complex, XML-based configuration and scalability at large sites. Indeed, Jabber.org migrated to ejabberd after a period of extended downtime related to jabberd eating all server resources during peak hours.[1]
