hi ryan,

i have uploaded a modification of the ajax-chat package with a real-time user list to the file storage. the link is https://openacs.org/storage/view/openacs_packages/chat_module%5C/chat-2.tgz

i have changed some other things in the package as well, there is now a german translation of most of the keys.

Good timing Peter.

We are making a java chat (the Arsdigita Java client) vs. AJAX backed chat decision for .LRN 2.2 at the .LRN meeting in the morning and user lists was one of the only things missing.

Could you come to the .LRN meeting in the morning on IRC?

https://openacs.org/irc/

Next Meeting is at 22:00 hours (in Vienna)

We also need to get you to commit changes to the code base rather than uploading files (file storage is suboptimal if we want to work on this together). We can discuss this in the morning as well.

Carl

Could I get a pointer to the results of this discussion please?

Result was that both solutions should be working in parallel (users should be able to choose a parameter value on the package instance). The ajax version needs xotcl and displays a warning if the default client is set to ajax and xotcl is not available.

The current status is that i have merged the changes from the ajax version with the version that was in cvs.
