Greetings Everyone!
Thanks to weasel for bringing Debian Jessie to the server, we now have a working usable Jabber server. Woot! Here is our XMPP score:
c2s: https://xmpp.net/result.php?domain=torproject.org&type=client s2s: https://xmpp.net/result.php?domain=torproject.org&type=server
Everyone with an LDAP account can connect to the server. Else, you can't. Before you can do that, you need to set your "rtc" password. Here is how:
1) Enter your user and ldap password at https://db.torproject.org/login.html and press "Update my info".
2) At the very bottom, you should see this https://people.torproject.org/~dgoulet/volatile/rtc-pass.png, the "Change rtc password" field. Put your password in there. Unfortunately, it silent fails if you enter a "too big of a password" and we are unsure of the maximum length so I think 16 characters (based on my experiment) is the maximum possible.
3) Wait a couple of minutes so the database sync up and reaches the jabber server. When you connect, if it fails, wait a bit more. Usually after 5 to 10 minutes it should work so report the issue if it still fails.
Useful informations about the server now and how to use it.
Your account is <ldap-user>@torproject.org. You have to enable TLS of course. We also have a hidden service! It's: k2r67kry5haud25b.onion. To use it, set the server of your account with it but the user must be your LDAP one that is <ldap-user>@torproject.org.
It's federating that means you can add contact that are OUTSIDE of this server such as riseup users or any workable jabber server supporting TLS.
Our TLS certificate is from Let's Encrypt and checksum is below. Remember that in 3 months that fingerprint will change:
SHA256 Fingerprint=56:4B:0B:AC:7A:55:1D:8F:52:29:E0:A6:61:D7:0F:B6:EC:41:FC:59:FE:2B:B3:39:FA:14:23:65:38:13:26:A0
Finally, this server has a special quirk. It will _tell_ you when you are NOT using OTR. I've put it in "optional" mode but we can also put it in "mandatory" mode if needed which will force all messages going through to be OTR encrypted.
I don't expect any big issues to arise once this server gets more users but at first we might need to tweak some stuff thus restart it.
Enjoy! David
Awesome! Thanks David!!!
Would it be possible to set it up to auto-populate the users list inside of Tor...? (Or is there resistance to that?) That seems like it would be helpful...

With the current setup, I'm not sure that super possible since you only get an account by setting the rtc password... So, we would need to find a way to populate a roaster with all users in that list which potentially requires ++ engineering but not impossible! :)
There is also the "does people want that" question. I can easily imagine someone not wanting _all_ Tor accounts in her/his roaster... but I'm open to the idea if we really have unified YES.

Since we do not have an easy way of having a list of registered users other than asking someone that is root on the server, I'll post my JID and OTR fingerprint here.
