Despite of my attempt to install a software to access
IRC, I fail. This is not simple for a non developper.
It would be much better and transparent if discussions
could occur on wikipedia itself or the mailing list.
I can not follow discussions then, and in fact I do
not even know how that works, and if archives of the
discussions are left somewhere, if they can be
consulted somehow; Is it possible or not ? Or is it
possible that someone save all the discussions so
those who do not have IRC know what is going on ?
I must sound very innocent I suppose, but I really do
not know how that works :-)
It is my understanding discussions are occuring over
there (or would occur) about setting a french
association and hosting of a server in France, or so
is what I understand from what is written on
wikipedia; In an association, there must be an annual
gathering to decide of err...rules, amount of money
members must pay, and such. Physical gathering to do
so would be difficult, so someone is suggesting that
this is done by IRC.
Does anyone knows if this is legal on IRC ?
If it is so, could there be a technical way for
wikipedia to help setting a sort of interface between
IRC and Wikipedia, so that this is publicly visible
and available to anyone at anytime ?
