Or not. Okey so it happened that the thing was taking place at a time reasonable for my timezone. So I check http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Task_force/Living_People/IRC_Agendas So there hasn't been an agenda in months. Fair enough agendas can be a pain. Hey how hard can it be to wing it? So I pop in. Discussion is about Reflect . You can read about it here: http://www.cs.washington.edu/homes/travis/reflect/ Personally I think it's a bad idea to sacrifice screen real estate on order to solve the odd TR:DR problem. So I make this clear. I'm told that this is related to having a deadline. I start to make the case that perhaps things are getting a little too meta. I also make the case that a tool that is based around removing context and nuance form posts is a bad idea. I start to make the case that if there is a deadline to meet it is better to work out how to do it using technology we already know well (remember no one was considering adding reflect to say en.pedia) rather than trying to introduce new technology and hope it will allow us to do things faster to the extent it makes up for the time lost deploying it and learning how to use it. But at that point I was kinda banned. So peeps. Go along hang out. But be careful with discussion or dissent. They may not work out too well. -- geni _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
