mod_firewall: Fix 'is_admin' internal dependency rule #1797 (thanks diane) Looks like the boolean logic was inverted here. Instead, for now, simply check if is_admin is there. It is deprecated in trunk and was briefly removed before being brought back with a 'deprecated' warning as part of the new roles and permissions work. Making this dependency conditioned on the existence of the underlying function should make it work until it actually goes away for real.

summary: JSON Encodings for XMPP
...

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

This plugin encodes XMPP as JSON. This is an implementation of
[XEP-0295: JSON Encodings for
XMPP](http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0295.html).

Simply loading this module makes Prosody accept JSON on C2S streams
(legacy XML clients are still supported).

For BOSH, it requires mod\_bosh be loaded, and JSON should be directed
at the `/jsonstreams` HTTP path.

JSON for S2S isn't supported due to the lack of a discovery mechanism,
so we have left that disabled to stay compatible with legacy XML
servers.

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

Just add `"json_streams"` in your config's global `modules_enabled`
list, for example:

    modules_enabled = {
        ...
        "json_streams";
    }

Strophe.js plugin
=================

We also developed a [JSON streams
plugin](http://prosody-modules.googlecode.com/hg/mod_json_streams/strophe.jsonstreams.js)
for the popular [strophe.js](http://code.stanziq.com/strophe) library.

Just include it like this after including the strophe library, and your
strophe-based client will be speaking JSON:

    <script type="text/javascript" src="strophe.jsonstreams.js"></script>

Be sure to set the HTTP path to `/jsonstreams`. No other changes are
required.

Compatibility

    multiplexing](http://prosody.im/doc/port_multiplexing) feature
