Sebastian Wagner commented on OPENMEETINGS-2697:
------------------------------------------------
Global chat, the one displayed when entering the dashboard and browsing pages
within OpenMeetings (e.g. going to private messages, calendar or list of
rooms). There is currently no ability to configure that to be "group only". All
chat messages are public.
Which makes it hard if there are two separated group of users on a single
server instance and you would like to prevent them from mixing. E.g. if you
have two separated groups from different companies using the same OpenMeetings
instance. They don't want to see chat messages from a different company on the
same OpenMeetings server.
Which makes the "group" feature difficult to use for that use-case. You would
need to have complete separated servers. Which may not be worth it (e.g. if
each company only have 5-10 users).

>
> When posting a message in the global chat with user1 that is only member of
> group1, and then logging in with user2 that is only member of group2 then you
> should not see user1 messages in the group chat. (Global chat is the chat on
> the dashboard)
> This is not consistent to other parts of OpenMeetings. User1 and user2 are
> not be able to search/find each other when searching for users when using
> other parts of OpenMeetings (Private messages, Calendar, other parts of
> OpenMeetings)
> Otherwise you can't separated groups. Via the global chat you can add users
> across groups that should not see each other.
