Re: [IAEP] Why #sugar should be logged - a plug for transparency and ease of use.
2010/1/13 Jeff Elkner j...@elkner.net It would like to make most of these conversations available to the rest of the community, but I don't have the time to log and publish them myself. +1 for a log bot Is there a good reason why we don't auto log the channel? jeff elkner ___ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)

What I need from a computer are tools that complement my limitations, and help me be more productive. irc can be such a tool, particularly in combination with logging. I'm a regular user on #schooltool. I go there to ask questions about schooltool, and participate there in on-line meetings about the development of schooltool. I don't worry about trying to take notes or record what happens on the channel, that all happens *automatically*. If I think later... Oh, yeah, we discussed that back in the first week in October. No problem, just go here: http://schooltool.pov.lt/irclogs/ and look through the dates around the time I remember the meeting happening. I was surprised to find out that there was no logging on #sugar, and it keeps me from wanting to hold any real discussions on the channel. I go there to find if folks are around, then ask them to meet me on google talk, so that I can automatically get a log of what we discuss. It would like to make most of these conversations available to the rest of the community, but I don't have the time to log and publish them myself. Is there a good reason why we don't auto log the channel? Apparenly it was discussed. Some people do not like publicly available logs. I log all my IRC channels locally. This is handy because I can use desktop search to find something. I can't point someone else to them, but I suppose I could email part of it to someone.

Dave I'm glad logging locally works for you, Dave, but it doesn't work for me. I really need less things to do, not more ;-) On Tue, Jan 12, 2010 at 7:44 PM, Luke Faraone l...@faraone.cc wrote: Is there a good reason why we don't auto log the channel?
