History

Coding of Metronome started in August 2012 due to the increasing needs to customize the Prosody codebase to suit the LW.Org IM[12] xmpp service requirements. Initially the codebase was not meant to be released, but after the adoption by the Jappix main service,[13] the code was opensourced and released under a dual ISC/MIT License.[14]
