mod_muc_markers: Add option for @id rewriting, default off (may break some clients) XEP-0333 was updated to clarify that stanza-id should be used instead of the 'id' attribute when in a MUC. Some clients still use the id attribute, which is why we were rewriting it. Rewriting is bad because mod_muc advertises stable_id, indicating that Prosody does *not* rewrite ids. Recent versions of Conversations actually depend on this being true. All clients should migrate to using stanza-id for markers. See XEP-0333.

Introduction
============

This module largely duplicates the functionality of the standard
mod\_announce that is included with Prosody. It was developed for
compatibility with some clients (e.g. iChat) that do not support ad-hoc
commands or sending to JIDs with the format
'example.com/announce/online'.

It may also be useful in other specific cases.

Configuration
=============

    Component "broadcast@example.com" "broadcast"

By default, only server admins are allowed to post to this address. You
can override this, by specifying the 'broadcast\_senders' option:

    Component "broadcast@example.com" "broadcast"
        broadcast_senders = { "user1@example.com", "user2@example.com" }

Compatibility
=============

  0.9    Works
