I like this idea. It seems that it would work. Active admins could
join here and idle in channel, in wait. :) How do we set it up?
I still like my idea of a Wikimedia-run Jabber server better. :)
Wikipedia could even integrate with it directly. Users could click a
button and page an active admin, who would get a link to their talk
page, etc.
I'm not sure if Wikimedia is going to host any chat anything. I have a
few servers here, but I'm not all that up on Jabber, or MySQL as it
would appear to require.
Honestly, I think perhaps I was trying to page an admin, at 6 AM local
here in the us, and no one was awake hardly. Just bad timing, and maybe
an isolated event. If it happens again, I'll think of a solution and
propose it.
