RE: [xdi] Chat room for weekly calls
Bill, that’s super. Just to verify,
XMPP will let us type in X3 simple examples to the chat room? That’s the
capability I think we’d find most useful.

I have one already running on
Communitivity.com. I will enable it and make sure it works tonight and send out
instructions tonight. It is XMPP, running ejabberd.  I'd be happy to offer
this for use of the TC.  I'd prefer XMPP rather than Skype as it is open
and offers a wider range of clients.

Per
Markus’ and Giovanni’s notes, I wholeheartedly agree that having a
chat room during our telecons is extremely helpful. However I was frustrated by
the soaphub chatroom we used on the last call because you can’t type X3
into it – it only permits single lines of text. IMHO any chat room we use
must enable us to type X3.

 

Since a
number of callers are using Skype anyway, is there any reason not to just use a
Skype chatroom? Or, if that is a problem, is there any other open chatroom we
can use that would allow us to type X3?
