You need to have a github account. Personally I like that, it's a barrier for some people maybe, but probably not too different than requiring an account on Freenode, but fundamentally it is better geared at "potential contributors". It also works on private repositories, for those to join the chat room you have to have access to the repository (i.e. making a repository private makes the chatroom private). _______________________________________________ hibernate-dev mailing list hibernate-dev@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hibernate-dev
