would switching to ios work? it goes thru proxies?

Trillian works well too

would be cooler if its done with rebol ;)

would be cooler if anything worked

Agreed. But trying ios first would cost 5 minutes. OTOH other messengers 
would be multiplatform.

you forget the 5 min delay between each message in iOS messenger

only on loaded servers. fresh ones are faster.

oh well, I don't have IOS installed anymore.

who provides groups then? jabber, icq, irc?

Pity Jaime can't code up a chat program now ...apparently he was 
going to do this while at Devcon during his talk.

Yeksoon, any updates?

just messae Reichart via QTask..let's see if he is monitoring it.

it must be 'painful' for him...to use QTask rather than AltMe :)

ML message from Gabriele:

<<Unfortunately network connectivity is not working as we wanted 
it to, so we had to drop the real time video streaming.>>

Bummer...

ah well... at least the conference is going

from R:
=
Update on the Dev Con.

Sadly, while we have wireless, and access to the Web, not to AltME! 
 Shame.

Also; Although it is being taped correctly, we can't get it on the 
web.


Apparently there are a lot of problems with Firewalls here, at different 
levels, as in, we are in a school, but in a addition, the Italian 
gov might be blocking some stuff.  We are not sure.
==

Oh well, I guess we come back in a few weeks to see the videos.

hopefully the presentation material will be up much sooner than that 
like last year

I'm on the Mac right now, so no AltME unfortunately... I'll try to 
get my

laptop on too and try to figure out how to bypass the firewall so 
I can
get on AltME too.

In the meantime, I have skype running here... just search for
gabriele_santilli and specify who you are so i can authorize you.

-Gabriele

Updated the Map -- should now remember who you are.  (let's see who's 
still around :o)

do http://www.ross-gill.com/r/rebcon-map.r
; or 'where' on my rebsite

Yeksoon, can you ask R to record the sessions as low rate mp3s and 
then upload after each session ?

that should be low tech enough to work on a Mac.

will relay the message over.

some body must be wearing an mp3 recorder around their necks!!

Anybody knows how to tune the DevCon broadcast ? I think it's starting 
right now but there is no info here http://www.colellachiara.com/devcon05/live.html

seems there is no broadcasting becuase this firewalls are to thick.

i doubt it

me going off for now... later...

thanks. too bad !

at work now ... so - we even did not get anyone sending plain old 
email to anyone of us, so short excerption of Carl's presentation 
could be posted here? If AltME or stream does not work, so what? 
Email or web still works, no? ;-)

only Gabriele saying that there are problems

well, he should let negative aspects to me, I am expert on that - 
what about anything positive, e.g. some small notes from Carl's presentation? 
:-)

Graham - are you talking to Gabriele on Skype right now?

no

I expect Carl's presentation being already over .... if Carl used 
some rebol script for presentation, slides could be posted :-)

power point presentation ?

did he use PowerPoint last time? I thought it is old-good present.r 
or how was it called?

looking at Conference 2004 website on rebol.net, it is redone in 
make-doc imo, so dunno what was original presentation made in ....

he used show2.r last year, Pekr.

Looks like each conference is going to bring it's own learning points 
:(

Carl used show2.r while the 'rest' use 'show.r'...I think.

I believe, Robert was the only one on powerpoint

Next year I suggest everyone prerecord their sessions as divx and 
bring them with them :)

heh, great - why not to have virtual rebol conference then? Everybody 
will buy their drink, install webcam in their room, we can code some 
nice View app for that :-)

has anybody tried skype to listen to the conference ?

nope, behind firewall right now, here on AltME only via slow GPRS 
connection - not sufficient for Skype ...

but I wonder if anyone could talk to Gabriele and ask him about what 
Carl announced - even few transcribed sentences posted here would 
help :-)

skype has chat inbuild too, that works.

Shame about no feed from Italy ...


Petr .... webcam in Rebol may be a bit ambitious .... we cant even 
get access to real time sound. !
