I think its a great idea. I had no idea that there was one there before now. I regularly drop in to the Ada and tiki channels there. Sometimes a quick answer or pointer to some ideas gets a much faster response than a mailing list. Each venue has its own uses. Also I'm assuming that the chat site on contribs.org is a web chat? I must have missed the announcement! I'll have to check it out, Regards, John C. -- Please report bugs to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] (only) to discuss security issues Support for registered customers and partners to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Searchable archive at http://www.mail-archive.com/devinfo%40lists.e-smith.org
