Subject: [xdi] Chat conferencing Redux
The Jabber chat server is up if anyone wants to chat before, during, or after the telecon. The chatting is unofficial, but will be logged and each days log will be a separate page on the Wiki. The server is xmlsolutions.org, and the port is the standard Jabber port 5222. If you do not have a Jabber client a good one to start with is Exodus, which can be downloaded from http://www.jabberstudio.org/projects/exodus/releases/view.php?id=433 To connect from scratch do the following: 1) Download the exe from the above URL 2) Virus check, run the exe 3) When prompted check SSL configuration (not in place yet, but will be) and plugins, then click Next 4) Set the install directory and click Next 5) Click next to use the default start menu shortcut 6) Check all three of add shortcut on desktop, add shortcut on quicklaunch, start exodus when windows starts 7) click install (you will need to be connected to the internet for this step) 8) Click next once it completes 9) Check run exodus 10) Click finish When it brings up the dialog for the profile: 1) Enter your wiki name as the user name 2) Server should be xmlsolutions.org 3) password should be something you'll remember 4) Check save password and this is a new account 5) Click Ok and you should be connected To join chat conference: 1) Press F7 2) Make sure Browse servers for a room to join is checked 3) You should see xdi as one of the rooms, double click on it 4) A new window should pop up with the text box to type your message in on the bottom left of the window, the history (chat history is set to 200, so if you log in a few minutes late it's not a problem) at the top left, and the users present (the roster) on the right. I'll be publishing the python script to take the Jabber XML log and put it into a wiki page as soon as I write it. On the use cases, I have not been able to make the time to split them out as was discussed at the last telecon, but will do so by the next meeting. I am logged into the XDI room, so feel free to IM me, but will be popping out for Chinese. I should be back by 7:30PM EST (4:30PM PST) at the latest, so please do let me know if you have problems with the chat server. Thanks, Bill
