I’d like to ask a general question about this since I am still fairly new to 
the community. Why has the Evergreen community opted to use IRC chat as an 
on-line meeting venue? The one time I used it I found it disconcerting in its 
antiquated look and feel and had difficulty with the etiquette. Why not use 
GoToMeeting, Blackboard Collaborate, or a similar product? The chat interface 
in these products is much closer to what most of us are used to and it would 
add in the possibility of using VOIP and screen sharing. I’ve been curious 
about this for a while....

Subject: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Should we schedule another IRC practice time?

Hello,

Last week the IRC practice time went well, and we had a good bunch of folks 
trying out IRC. I wanted to check in if there was interest for a second 
practice time. I am all for it, but I wanted to verify that there was community 
interest. Remember to include your colleagues that are not on this list that 
may want to learn.

I tend to pick times after 12 noon EST to allow those on the west coast to 
join, but I am willing to schedule something in the (east coast) morning too.

Thanks in advance,
Yamil
