Hi all, Yesterday, I've started a discussion in the member list about promoting the use of IRC instead of Mail List for some kind of discussions, chit chat, etc. Not much members answered, but all who did said yes. The goal is to have, at least, one channel per mail list, but not limited to only that. For this list, an #atlas channel will be created and administrated by the WG Chairs. We want to use the actual RIPE IRC Server plus Network Services and some more irc servers linked to the Ripe one. What do you think? Regards, --Daniel
Have you considered Slack?

FWIW, http://www.mattermost.org/ <ttp://www.mattermost.org/> is an open source Slack clone Best, Jelle.
Cool. I did not know that. FWIW WordPress has replaced IRC with Slack. When compiling a list of things people liked about our existing options, it was obvious that Slack was all of that and more, including: - Open for everyone - Friendly user interface - Easy asynchronous conversation - iOS and Android apps - Powerful customization abilities - Excellent search https://make.wordpress.org/chat/ Best regards, Emil Stahl Pedersen On Wed, Aug 12, 2015 at 2:57 PM, Jelle Herold <jelle@defekt.nl> wrote:

Best, Jelle.
I'm unlikely to go back to IRC. I would participate if it were a Slack channel. For those who do not want to use Slack, there are XMMP gateways for it. On 13 August 2015 at 00:20, Emil Stahl Pedersen <emil@emilstahl.dk> wrote:

Hi, <personal hat on> I'd think that if such a thing is indeed made, XMPP/Jabber is more state of the art than IRC. Jabber rooms can also have persistence/memory, so missed previous messages can be seen after one logs in -- there's no need for a bot to sit in all the time and record. </personal hat on> Cheers, Robert On 2015-08-12 14:17, Daniel Baeza (Red y Sistemas TVT) wrote:

I would suggest using the Freenode IRC network and just create a channel there, many developers and sysadmins already hang out at Freenode (370 users in #ipv6, 970 in #networking), I bet some Atlas users are there too. It's very simple to join one more channel on an existing network you're already on, but a much higher amount of hassle to create a new connection profile in the IRC client for a new network, then register a username there, etc. -- With respect, Roman

Yet another communications channel? Thank you, but, no, thank you. Daniel AJ

<hat type="personal"> Please, no IRC. If something like this is wanted, use something from this century, which actually has features. XMPP would be my preferred option. </hat> Cheers, Colin
