Roman, I have create a room for Geode, which also has this URL for access - http://s.apache.org/geodechat - so now you can be as cool as Infra :)
As David says below, unless we create accounts for folks, they will appear in the guests column - which has a few limitations; the biggest of which is that they are not permitted to have private conversations (akin a /PM in IRC). We can happily create accounts for folks if you want, but again as David mentioned these are typically only created for folks with an ASF UserID. > On 4 Jun 2015, at 07:53, David Nalley <da...@gnsa.us> wrote: > > On Thu, Jun 4, 2015 at 12:11 AM, Roman Shaposhnik <ro...@shaposhnik.org> > wrote: >> Hi! >> >> apologies for CCing INFRA, but since I'm using >> their prior art perhaps somebody over there could >> share their experience in how they solved it. >> >> What I'm trying to do is to setup a Hipchat room >> for Geode poddling (because, you know, it is 2015 >> and everybody's way too hip for good old IRC). >> All I'm getting out of Hipchat is something like this: >> https://apachegeode.hipchat.com/chat/room/1584658 >> which is nothing like an awesome chat room that INFRA has: >> https://s.apache.org/infrachat >> >> For one -- anybody who wants to use mine has to >> register with Hipchat and also there seems to be >> some weird limit on the # of folks who can use it. >> >> What am I missing?
