I don't like the idea, but I don't necessarily object. Worth trying
new things and learning from the results. :)

I question how those who can't participate via IRC (assuming that is a
goal here) and those who can't participate via the conference call
will interact with each other.
Not that I am sure I would be attending either way, but I am much more
likely to participate in IRC than on a conference
Are we talking about having the community meeting on IRC and a
conference call? I'd rather not go that route. We have been doing well
with IRC meetings for the last few years and now with the meetbot it's a
lot more efficient in keeping notes.
I actually would like future web team meetings to
Historically, the Community Meeting grew out of a need to disseminate
information from various groups and committees to a larger group of
people and it started as an extension of the Developer meetings
conducted regularly in IRC. There was some discussion in those early
days about the format

My suggestion was to have a conference call in parallel with the IRC chat line.

When it comes to interpersonal communication, online chat is a blunt
instrument inferior to using voice for a number of natural reasons. As far as
transparency of web team meetings, that's a different topic altogether, not
sure why you bring it up here. The web team conference call is open
Alexey,
I actually thought you were suggesting that the web team be on a conference
call during the IRC meeting so we could work together (on the phone) to
make sure we were providing a good overview of the pilot drupal evergreen
site. That, I think is a fine idea. It was just a one-time thing
Just an FYI about IRC, there are plenty of people who don't participate in
the community meetings because it is on IRC too. Not that I'm lobbying at
this time to change the format (as I've already addressed) but I think IRC
is a big leap for many people (despite how incredibly easy and

As simple as following the web gateway link at

But yeah, still a mental barrier there if nothing else. Or maybe
Yea, forgot that freenode operates their own webchat! My experience
has been that once folks get into the room the rest of it is pretty
easy - maybe learning a bit of irc etiquette (that can be our third
goal ;) )

Hi Jason,
Maybe, when we send out invites to the community meetings we should include
info about the easy to use web interface that is available for anyone to
use (even if you've never done IRC before) with some tips for newbies.

We're planning on doing a quick Intro to IRC session at next year's
Evergreen conference (hey! have you registered yet?
http://eg2013.evergreen-ils.org ) as well as having volunteers around to
help folks get started on IRC.
It's not hard, if you've chatted online with someone you can use IRC.
Thanks for the offer, David. Is there a limit to the number of people who
can access IRC from a single web gateway?

Jason,
I think people don't realize web gateway means...hey, look! here's a way
to do IRC if you don't even know what IRC means!
Adding some particulars about key IRC commands including the basics like
how to log in, introducing yourself, how to vote, when to speak up, and how
to log off would

Sounds like a good idea to me. I think we may want to embiggen :)

I am not aware of any artificial limits. Some chat servers limit the
number of connections to a room from the source IP which may impact all
users on the gateway since they will share that gateway IP. Freenode
likely has taken this into consideration and set those limits to high
values. /me
Jason,
Ja!
