Just a simple modification for XMPPNotificationStrategy.java file.

Intead of sendng a XMPP message to a jabber ID this modification join a group
chat and send all notifications. The user where the notification destination
path use has to change the XMPP Adress to the group chat adress.

I think this is more usefull because then everybody in the staff can tune in to
the group chat and read and comment all notifications.

Maybe you can modify so we can choose type of XMPP message; chat or groupChat.
