i don't see what's hard about setting that up for a team but i'll take your word for it since i don't cj, but what 'setting up' does screen take you install it and then run the command. i think it already comes installed on most distros anyways

my company has like 8 different chat clients they use depending on what team you're working on. management got wind and made the grand declaration that we're all moving to slack. except we still use hangouts for one-on-one messaging and video conferencing (along with bluejeans/webex/gotomeeting) and dev is staging an insurgency and staying on flowdock because slack doesn't have threading (how tf does slack not have threading?)

thanks cobbers i like irc, i like jabber, i use both for various things. there's a certain level of sugar that hipchat, slack, et. al. bring for dev teams, things like embedding links, pasting code, tagging comments for later filtering/searching. yeah hipchat would be nice because of its integration with jira and confluence, our entire organisation uses jira and confluence so those licences are good value, but only a small number of us would use stash/bamboo/hipchat, but we're not quite small enough to qualify for the cheap rates and we can't afford the next step up. so we run free source control and CI tools, and mattermost looks like it will fit that purpose pretty well. LDAP support is on the way too which would be ideal. will give it a run and report back

what do you need? well we kinda need a web forum, you know, long running flat threads, user accounts, password recovery, registration, inline images, attachments, oh and full text search, and we want it to update as people are posting. have you considered that maybe you need irc? i know it's stateless, and has none of the above but surely every team member can just ssh into the same box, attach screen and jump into bash to grep for logs on the sared directory, assuming that bot doesn't go down

still not seeing the problem, teffu, but i appreciate getting dogpiled by the depressed angry scotsman who barely poasts these days. it has more of that vintage coc feel we've been lacking since AD got absorbed into umad ison or brozilla or wherever he's working now

This sounds like the IM equivalent of the forum post dissecting every line from 4 different posts. I guess it's made for people who want their opinion in everything.

threaded conversations are like that time you chatted with that really annoying guy who always wanted to move the topic back to the last thing you talked about because he had something to say about that

i mean IRC as a protocol can probably be adapted to the enterprise but only if you put a graphical client in front of it that will autoconnect to the right server and hide all of its legacy horror e: and i mean graphical too, not some x11 "console in a window" hsit ee: Gazpacho fucked around with this message at 19:23 on Nov 9, 2015 |
