Your console faces your door? Nobody ever looks at your monitor?
I can totally sympathize with his position. At my previous employer any form of "chat" was forbidden, and my monitor was viewable to the entire office, so I only got to IRC at work when I was alone in the office. But, to bring this conversation back to the real point, what do the majority of #trilug users want to see? I've seen responses for and against Jabber, and I'd like to follow up on the MUC issue. Somebody mentioned a curses-based MUC client from google's SOC. Can we get any more info on that? Keep the feedback coming, CMP On 8/30/06, David McDowell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
