Like brogondwana says, from the commit log on their github repo, it's clear (years after that fastmail blog post) that Process One has abandoned ejabberd 3.x. ejabberd 2.x appears to continue to have updates. [0]
Having said that, for my single-account, single-site needs, ejabberd worked just fine for me for the several years between the time that I learned about the fact that Google Talk federated with XMPP servers and the time that Google stopped federating with other XMPP server operators.
I can't speak to how comprehensive ejabberd is, but for one-on-one chats, and multi-user chats, it worked just fine when I was using it.

I see this keep getting repeated, but AFAIK there was only like a month long time they temporarily suspended federation for adding new contacts due to a spam issue? I've been talking to people on Google Talk from my (FastMail, sadly) XMPP account for the past year without issue? Am I going crazy?
- simoncion 11y agoI remember that roughly around the time Google declared that they were deactivating XMPP federation, I was suddenly unable to make -IIRC- s2s connections between Google Talk and my XMPP server, and message delivery failed 100% of the time. This situation persisted for quite a while (weeks? months?), and I -having noone to talk to- shut down my server. Google might have changed their mind and quietly started federating again. I haven't checked in ages. Guess I have another project to complete this weekend. :)
