There's even an extension that allows to use it from on-wiki interface. Therefore, adding yet another method of chat would result in multiplying entities beyond necessity. Don't forget that all means of communication in MediaWiki is there to achieve one goal: collaboration, not random chit-chat. And real-time chatting is much less convenient for that exact purpose. Not a snowball's chance in hell that we'll ever implement it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

Could you link to that extension? *In my opinion, this is a simple matter of connecting to IRC and adding a tab. *Wikinews added an opinions tab; this can't be that difficult. *This really is a community decision, not a developer decision. *Who told you it was random chit-chat was the only use?

That is totally different. The opinion tab is just a talk page. *In my opinion, this is a simple matter of connecting to IRC and adding a tab. Its a tad more complicated than that, but that is more or less what you do. However I do not believe difficulty is the issue, more there is philosophical issues. Could you link to that extension? There are many (although a lot of them suck). You know there is a search button - http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Chat_extensions *This really is a community decision, not a developer decision. Thats debatable, however i don't see any links to community consensus either. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

Adding a tab is easy. We're not objecting because it's hard to do. *This really is a community decision, not a developer decision. Fair enough, but without a pretty strong community consensus for this you'll be hard pressed to find a developer to implement it. Even then, it might not get implemented anytime soon (unless it is something the Foundation wants and can put paid developers behind). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

This is a featured proposal at http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Proposal:Real-time_chat the Strategy Wiki; we'll have to see where that goes.

If there was interest, the channel number could grow and cover more specific topics. I'd start with channels (or chatrooms or whatever you want to call them) for: Culture · Geography · Health · History · Mathematics · Natural sciences · People · Philosophy · Religion · Society · Technology Any thoughts? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.
