Hi list,

Hope you've all had a pleasant holiday season so far!

I'm working on a project which involves recieving SMSes through a web
interface in "real time".

When the clients are connected, they join a channel which they can
listen on - this channel has the messages sent to it and all the
clients recieve it at once.  However, this means that if a client
connects later, it will not have any record of messages sent
previously (which is important in our case).  At the point at which we
send the message to the channel, we are also logging it in a MySQL
db.

Is there any preferred way of letting new clients "catch up"?  My
thought was to have a "public" channel where all new messages are
sent, and then a private pipe which each client sets up where it
initially connects to, and asks for all the messages which have been
sent since a certain time (with a command like GET_MESSAGES_SINCE with
a parameter of a timestamp).

I'm really pleased with what I've seen of the APE project so far -
perfect for what I want to do !

Cheers,
