The three of us who are in there on a regular basis tend to just shoot he
breeze most of the time. Breeze shooting is the best.
If I can find a suitable web client, I might start some scheduled chats
with directed topics. That would rock! I have a first topic: "What does your shop want RPG to look like in 2 years?". Let's get some solid input for the RPG compiler and WDSC team.

My main concern is, if many people who regularly participate in these lists (MIDRANGE-L, etc.) start using this new chat room, they will be chatting with each other, and the rest of us will not benefit from any knowledge shared in the chat room, that would normally be shared via these lists, because the exchange of information in a "chat room" is only available to those who are "in" the "chat room" at that time, and if someone is busy chatting, they might not want to take the extra effort to also post a (redundant) e-mail to the list...
Well, considering the general activity of the chat room, that's not really a major concern. The three of us who are in there on a regular basis tend to just shoot he breeze most of the time.
What are the goals of having this chat room?
Well, it's more a social experiment than anything else. If serious technical discussions start ... I'll probably post a transcript of the chat to a list or the imho blog. If I can find a suitable web client, I might start some scheduled chats with directed topics. david -- New merchandise at the midrange.com shop: http://www.cafepress.com/midrangedotcom -- This is the Midrange Systems Technical Discussion (MIDRANGE-L) mailing list To post a message email: MIDRANGE-L@xxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/midrange-l or email: MIDRANGE-L-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/midrange-l.
