Description:I've tested the following scenario and, IMHO, the default autoprune should not be set on. It's too dangerous for the regular user or admin to be enabled for new installations. I don't see any clear reason to have it on, bear with me if it's really required (I'm not familiar with the Jabber spec).

I log in with my FOO account on Gmail/Gtalk and add 150 friends to my Jabber-based client, online. Then I register this very same account with res_jabber so I can make sure it's fully working and stuff. As soon Asterisk loads it up it sets a global AJI_AUTOPRUNE to true. Suddenly ALL my 150 contacts are gone on my Gtalk list. The only way to restore the list is to re-add them all (which is a PITA for my friends, not for me).

I've lost my all contacts when testing res_jabber due this, I hope autoprune is disabled by default in the next releases :-(

****** ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ******

Yeah, the patch is very verbose. User information is never a bad thing.

Looks good to me.  In fact, unless I hear otherwise, I think this should probably be included in 1.6.0, as well.

Corydon, is there anything else missing or is it really ok for 1.6.0? :-)
