IRC vs. Google Partychat (Re: Documentation and Examples Planning: Monday, 5 May, 9:00 EST)

[Jonathan Robie <jo...@redhat.com>]

 From what I can tell, IRC is easiest for most people (#qpid on 
freenode), but I have heard that there are some people who may want to 
participate who can not use IRC because of issues with their firewalls.

Is this true? If one person who wants to participate can't because IRC 
doesn't work, then I think we should use partychat.

If nobody pipes up and says that they want to participate on Monday but 
can't use IRC to do so, we'll move to IRC.

I want to talk about a proper strategy to address version specific
documentation in our website.
I am +1 to anything that gives us a decent result. Forrest seems promising.

Could we nominate jonathan (any other volunteers) as a moderator for the
chat to keep everything on track and also agree on an agenda for the chat.

You can join multiple chatrooms with partychat by using the other 
partychat gmail aliases (partychat0@gmail.com through 
partychat9@gmail.com). Just add another partychat alias as a buddy and 
join the other chat from there.

it might be a good idea to create a separate chat from the normal
#qpid so that the people not involved in the doc chat can still
converse...

#qpiddocumentation anyone?

I'd like to be there, but can't get IRC from work. I specifically want
to talk about forrest integration.
