(ie what exactly loses you your job, using port 6666/6667, or using the IRC service itself -- by whatever means -- in other words are they worried about DoS attacks via the protocol/port, or are they worried about employees being identificable on unmonitored networks?) > I use a separate computer (non business stuff) and my private ISP/cable > network for IRC. > The meeting is at 12 Midnight Japan time, so this does not pose a > problem, but this means that the meeting is head during business hours > US time for Jim. > > It looks as if the US participants will need a conference call to be > held concurrently with IRC. Peter, could you moderate such a thing? I can't *host* a concall because I have no way to charge it or recoup the cost. I could have a try at *moderating* the IRC/concall interaction but I'm not sure this would work: in effect it means reading out down the phone line whatever appears on the screen, and typing in what gets said on the phone. I suspect this would slow the meeting to a snail's pace. ///Peter
