Jason, I think people don't realize "web gateway" means...hey, look! here's a way to do IRC if you don't even know what IRC means!
Adding some particulars about key IRC commands including the basics like how to log in, introducing yourself, how to vote, when to speak up, and how to log off would be useful additions to that page too. I know I have to look up IRC commands (like how to I end this session??) everytime I try to do anything there and inevitably I still do *something* wrong. But I have a higher tolerance than some for just trying even if I end up looking like an idiot! ;) Lori On Thu, Aug 30, 2012 at 11:37 AM, Jason Etheridge <ja...@esilibrary.com>wrote: > >...but I think IRC is a big leap for many people (despite how incredibly > easy and > > straight-forward it seems to all you developers out there!) > > As simple as following the web gateway link at > http://evergreen-ils.org/chat.php :-) > > But yeah, still a mental barrier there if nothing else.
