Re: Calling into Lua from Erlang

["Andreas Stenius" <andreas.stenius@...>]

Well, maybe not. I think the implementation of ejabberd is lacking in many 
ways, but that may be only my personal preference.
For one, I'm trying to follow the OTP Design Principles as much as possible. 
I don't feel that ejabberd is very well organized, however I've not actually 
tried to use it, only browsed the source.

My implementation is not very likely to become working for actual use in a 
while, being home with my 16 month old son doesn't give me much time over 
with the computer ;c) But I have great plans for my jabber server, for one, 
it should be really simple to implement extensions for it, so I expect to 
have support for most XEP's not too long after I have the core functionality 
in place (in development time, not calendar time). At the moment, alot of 
time goes into learning Erlang though, slowing the whole process down a bit.

One thing that remains to be figured out is if/how I could/should toss Lua 
into the mix (since I love it so much ;c)

Enough jabbering from me now.. ;c)
