util.startup: Don't create installer plugin path (as root) Since this runs before dropping root, the directory ends up being owned by root, resulting in luarocks failing to install anything, since by then it would be running as the prosody user. luarocks creates this directory if needed, so creating it during startup is not necessary. One potential issue is if the directory is somewhere where Prosody can't write, but then you will simply have to create it yourself with the appropriate permissions.

This file documents the structure of the roster object.

table roster {
  [string bare_jid] = roster_item
}

table roster_item {
  string subscription = "none" | "to" | "from" | "both"
  string name = Opaque string set by client. (optional)
  set groups = a set of opaque strings set by the client
  boolean ask = nil | "subscribe" - a value of true indicates subscription is pending
}

The roster is available as
 hosts[host].sessions[username].roster
and a copy is made to session.roster for all sessions.

All modifications to a roster should be done through the rostermanager.
