Hi all, I'm doing an experiment with slack.com as IRC alternative. I'm no expert in slack, first time I ever used, if you have more experience let me know so I can add you as admin.
The biggest annoyance at the time is sign up that requires an invitation, I sent to some in this list, others can do based on domains such as @samsung.com, @osg.samsung.com and so on... but they do not allow comcast.net or gmail.com to auto-join. So if you want to join, let me know your email and I'll send the invitation. I've added some interesting plugins as people were demanding voice/video calls at some point, these 2 can be better than simply keeping a google Hangouts open all the time (and night!): /appear edevelop creates an appear.in video/voice chat https://appear.in/edevelop just click to join, no app or registration is required. Seems to have a 8 person limit. /hangout creates a hangout invitation link and post to channel, people can click to join. Marcel told it also has a limit on video users. Since we often need to remember people of stuff: /remind [@person or #channel] [what] [when] /remind me to drink water at 3pm every day /remind me on June 1st to wish Linda happy birthday /remind #team-alpha to update the project status every Monday at 9am /remind @jessica about the interview in 3 hours /remind @peter tomorrow "Please review the office seating plan" or: /todo @okra fix ephoto! /mytodo help vtorri with ecore-con on win32 It can integrate with jenkins as well, but I don't have the permission to do that in our jenkins. So far, the web-browser version is as usable as the app, at least on Linux/Chrome, so no install is required. It looks quite nice and also provides phone applications (iOS version is very good). I also liked that it have built-in "pastebin", just click the "[+]" at the left side of the message box to send one. -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri -------------------------------------- Mobile: +55 (16) 99354-9890 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
