Thanks!

I think that the new pu branch you pushed out is incomplete. It has a
very short run of patches, a massive diff from the pu I reviewed, and
it ends at

  11bdbdb Add setup.d hooks

Maybe a git push is needed :-)

Looks good.  We'll make a server & client release together. I have a
buglet to fix client-side.

Much nicer layout, thanks! In fact, if you want to move it to
/var/lib, or /library... you got my nod as well.

Request: list_registration is a command for sysadmins;
 - rename it (xs-list-registration?), put it on the path
 - maybe make it root-only?

I'll look into merging w 1.9.x latest, for security and stable
goodies. How much time have we got?

Hmmm, perhaps it's not getting the automagic Online group created?
Look in the ejabberd-xs.init script, run the commands from
setup_online_srg() by hand. The change in the ejabberd control module
changed the syntax of commands slightly.

Branch mdl19-xs from
git+ssh://dev.laptop.org/git/users/martin/moodle.git
