XMPP / Jabber: WHY?!
With this protocol (xmpp == jabber) you can chat with other people that have such an account. Not neccessarily on the nurdspace server; any account will do. As the nurdspace server uses ssl/tls/something-encryption, it should be safe as well to use. Only when someone hacks either the nurdspace-xmpp-server or the xmpp-server of the opponent you're chatting with (well or your computer or the computer of the opponent), only then your messages can be read. Well... unless you install the "off the record"-plugin (OTR) - if you enable that in a chat (and exchange the fingerprints via some other channel), then hacking your chats will be rather difficult.
It is also convenient to have if you want people in #nurds (irc) to be able to send you a message by using "!summon nickname text" (contact flok for that).
Every NURDspace member has an account on our server. The server can be reached at: space.nurdspace.nl. So for example a username is folkert@space.nurdspace.nl.

XMPP versus Jabber
So what is the difference between XMPP and Jabber? Well, there's none! It is the same, just an other name.
technical details
- runs on xmpp.vm.nurd.space
- listens on xmpp.vm.nurd.space and also allows space.nurdspace.nl domain
- certificate is installed from revproxy01 from cron:
0 0 * * * /usr/bin/scp -C /var/lib/caddy/.local/share/caddy/certificates/acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org-directory/space.nurdspace.nl/* root@xmpp.vm.nurd.space:/root/certificate
On the XMPP host, the new certificate is installed on 00:05 (/root/bin/update-prosody-certificates.sh).
