I didn't realize the IETF was using jabber for chats. > Mostly during the sessions. This is to allow for a larger participation. Many sessions have streaming audio and a 'jabber scribe'. It is not uncommon for the scribe to come to the room mike and repeat a question he/she has received via jabber. Also helps for interim sessions. We are experimenting with WebEX for interim web meetings. The CORE wg session this morning was hosted by Cisco. For some reason the chairs could not get the scheduled session working. Eventually one of the chairs got another WebEX session set up and we were able to meet. It was reasonably productive. So if you can't make Beijing in Novemeber, you may be able to follow your favorite workgroup over live audio and jabber. I will be missing the Beijing meeting, as IEEE 802 is meeting the same week in Dallas. Can only be in one place at a time, and someone else can cover IETF for me, but I am chairing a session at 802... > I'm using Pidgin because empathy doesn't support O-T-R. > I have a Mac friend who uses O-T-R when talking to me. > > If I right click on Pidgin in my Notification Area, > I get the option, "Join Chat..." > > A Window pops up, saying "Join a Chat" with > Account...I select one of my Jabber accounts, > such as my Google jabber account. > The Window expands to the following: > Account rsewill@xxxxxxxxx/pidgin... > Room: > Server: > Handle: rsewill > Password: > > I enter hallway for the room and jabber.ietf.org for the server getting > Account rsewill@xxxxxxxxx/pidgin... > Room: hallway > Server: jabber.ietf.org > Handle: rsewill > Password: > I click Join and I am in hallway chat room at jabber.ietf.org. > > The following URL describes how to set up google talk chat in Pidgin: > http://google.com/support/chat/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=24073 > > I learn something new every day. > > Thank you! > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) > Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ > > iEYEARECAAYFAkx1UVAACgkQyc8Kn0p/AZR1HACfak9Qgrt3qlSTHo3m9CDYw8n7 > zjEAnjtactmPfiLTunMNz0I8o3FTYqEu > =Vx72 > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
