why would I create/register an IRC channel for a project that's not mine? the reason no one uses the cfml one... is that most IRC users are open source users (at least on freenode can't speak for other networks, and I have no stats to back this up). The common opinion in the community is that cfml is proprietary, cfml is slow, cfml is buggy. actually most don't even know what cfml is, you have to spell coldfusion markup language out to them. also the low number of users in that channel is cause and effect, no users on the channel mean no new users in the channel. I'm hard pressed to think of major FOSS projects (mozilla aside, they have there own IRC server) that don't have a channel on freenode. Sometimes, I just prefer IRC for faster results than mailing lists. It's good when I'm working on something right now and want help right now because I have time right now. but hey it's not my project... who am I to say what's right for this specific community. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Open BlueDragon Public Mailing List http://groups.google.com/group/openbd?hl=en official site @ http://www.openbluedragon.org/ !! save a network - trim replies before posting !! -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
