If you people feel the same with relayb0t, >> I am happy to take it down. For the record (I am headed out the door now), since you reference me only indirectly and very tersely: What I judge as noisy more than helpful is merely the *current* implmentation: At least on the irc side, messages are represented as originating not from the participant but from the bot. That does not provide me a feel of two rooms merged into one, but of a "microphone + speaker" put up in two rooms still separate, so you _hear_ conversations going on in the other room but not easily interact, and cannot selectively suppress. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
