Chop Chop, Jabber is OpenSRF's custom lighweight Jabber server.  It's designed with speed and simplicity in mind, and thus boasts roughly 2% of the XMPP (http://www.xmpp.org/) feature set.  What it provides is fast XMPP message routing with little extra logic to support the wealth of XMPP options. 

Highlights of Chop Chop

   - Support client logins over TCP/IP and **Unix** sockets.  Unix sockets provide a fast local interface to the server when both client and server are running on the same machine. 
   - Standard XMPP login sessions.  Note, however, that the current server allows **any** client to login regardless of username, password, or domain.  If you're planning on running Chop Chop, it **must** be run in a private network or anyone, anywhere can login to the server.
   - Standard Jabber/XMPP message routing.  
   - Standard error message when sending messages to users that are not logged in
