Hi,

Second thought - would it be possible to setup a 'moderation' team to monitor the chat on the server in (semi) regular intervals? i could imagine if there were a bridge between the servers and irc that you would get a few people volunteering to join. say this bridge merely bridges chat, and allowes the 'moderators' on irc to chat back, chat privately, and kick.

I believe the automation is quite nice, however does not compensate for good administration ;-)

greets
Nathanael

I've been making this offer because I'm familiar with the software, the
technique involved, its benefits in general, its versatility in
particular, its quirks as well as scalability concerns.

If people feel like biasing decisions by shouting each other down, then
I'm happily going to observe the process as a spectator.

Have fun,
        Martin.

  Martin,

I'm sorry if you feel I have shouted you down, that wasn't my intention at all with my reply. I was expressing my long-term concern about direct access to a LDAP server. I wanted this to highlight the need to think about the consequences and think about how it would meet future capacity requirements. My reply was intended to extend your idea of a single identity, by using middleware components to distribute or federate that identity, not to downgrade the idea, I'm sorry if it wasn't taken in way in this open forum.


    Scott.
