Just a follow up, chat on IRC suggests my message was not so clear: - I'm not advocating we drop IRC. Jabber actually supports `Multi User Chat', and it can be bridged to IRC, so people use what they want
- Voice/Audio was deliberately not mentioned in the first email: text is fine - Other forms of collaboration might involve whiteboard, video, etc and as an innovative organization, maybe others will emerge once an XMPP platform is in place - not specifically for -team meetings, as mentioned in the email, it could be for DebConf itself, e.g. people asking questions remotely could be cued through a conference server and they can have their face on the projector (and in the official talk videos) - not mandatory though, but useful for BoF sessions? - such radical ideas could initially be tried at a smaller meeting (e.g. next time there is a face-to-face meeting of local team, or a mini-DebConf) On 21/08/12 13:40, Daniel Pocock wrote: > > > I'm just wondering if there is ongoing interest in anything beyond IRC, > either for the -team meetings, or for use at DebConf itself > > I've been evaluating various products, like SylkServer, and I'm happy to > support such initiatives either for DebConf or a wider Debian use case. > > SylkServer ITP bug (sponsor needed too): > http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=682698 > > List of various solutions: > http://wiki.debian.org/AlternativesToMumble > > _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
