I can see merit in an SDO chat and I like the idea publishing the chat topics and summarising the chat log. For me that would enable me to work smarter, since I could decide ahead of time whether to attend the wider meeting or catch up later by reading the log summary. Hopefully the net time spent for me would be less, and the relevance to my core interst would be greater. What do the rest of the SDO community think? I'd be happy to summarize and post the log. If there's interest perhaps we should try 1/2 an hour a week as a starter?

Hi I have found the chat logs useful to catch up with the discussions. But then we must be more choosy about the sort of topics we discuss. In my opinion the chat must be reserved for subjects that simply cannot be allowed to drag over for days, over the mailing lists. It would be good if we can decide ahead of the chat, on the subjects that should be taken for discussion i.e. fix the agenda ahead of the chat. That will help partcipants come prepared as well. As for who will decide the sort of subjects to be discussed, we could either propose and vote over the mailing lists or maybe just propose and trust the chat moderator to take a call on that. - Venkat On 7/5/06, Paul Fremantle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I think IRC is goodness as long as > > 1. the log gets posted > 2. formal votes are done on email > > Communities that meet regularly on IRC might have an issue if they > dont post logs, but if the discussion is posted on email then its a > very productive. > > Paul > > On 7/5/06, ant elder <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > There's a thread going on over on incubator-general about the use of > IRC: > > http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=115111286000001&r=1&w=2 > > > > Are people happy with having our current weekly hour long IRC chat?
