The hurdle to get started with Apple's Open Source distributions

Hello people,

I started out looking at Apple's Open Source because I was thinking about patching a bug in the (rather old) jabber server that comes with OS X Server. So, as an ADC member, I downloaded the ChatServer download. But it turns out it does not compile just like that. I started looking for some newbie information, say a cookbook to get things started. I found one about rolling your own XCode project around some PD software, but that was not it. I looked at mailing list archives, but was soon lost in lists, some of which have their last post in 2004 or so.

I decided to get on this list to ask the question: where do I find good instructions that will help me in getting the (jabberd) ChatServer from Apple's Public source compiled and installed on my OS X Server (10.5.6)?

Can somebody point me to the information I need? On my own, I have not been able to find it and I have gotten lost in all the relevant and sometimes outdated information.

Yours,

G

PS. I am looking for updating my stuff, not solutions like macports, fink or such where you end up with a second or even third hierarchy of programs.
