I'd like to invite coders on this project to join me on a weekly google video hangout. I will make a point to be online there at 10am pacific time (utc -8) most wednesday mornings.

As I understand the hangout documentation I can invite a circle of up to 10 people and they will get special notices when the hangout starts. If you would like to be in that circle, send me email with your google id so I can add you to that circle.

It is my intention to use google hangouts hear issues with, and ambitions for, this project. However the discussions of record will remain here on GitHub.

4:00am Australian Eastern Standard Time (the Australian timezone UTC+10)

I am also working towards doing g+ hangouts for foswiki, so I think its a good idea.

i'm SvenDowideit on g+ too - I would like to try .

I'll see what the girls do at 4pm :) should be able to have a short test at least.

I would like to join in but I am at UTC+1. Seeing that I am only an aspiring coder you should go ahead with 10pm pacific.

Is this still happening? I guess that would have been a couple hours ago if it happened?

@WardCunningham

Yes. I'll be online 10am pacific time Wednesday mornings. (I only missed once.)

Today @nrn and I read code together.

The fedwiki hangout remains open 24x7.

The link takes me back to this page: https://plus.google.com/hangouts and I can't figure out how I can still get to the hangout.

The link that seems to work has this extra underscore in it. Not sure where that came from in the first place.

I moved this improved link up to the first comment in this issue. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Now it seems to be broken altogether. Anyone else having the same problems?

@WardCunningham

Google seems to have discontinued this "named hangout" feature. Other changes have made public hangouts unproductive too. I've promised to solve some of these problems but don't actually have a solution. I'll take mention of hangouts out of our readme.

@hallahan

So the hangout is the same time but on IRC instead? Bummer google messed up a good thing.

@harlantwood

@WardCunningham, you suggested last week creating a circle with the people who'd been on hangouts who you recognized and inviting only those. I've never done this, but it seems like a good plan if it's possible.

@almereyda

I have been trying to attend one or two meetings. But the hangout link was somewhat down Wednesdays, 7pm CEST (what I calculated must be something like 10am PSST).

Also #fedwiki seems a little abandoned these days : at meeting times I didn't find activity. I should definately idle there a bit to see what's going on.

Any plans to revive this? Else the thread could be closed.

I launch the hangout each wednesday. I tweet the new address at https://twitter.com/WardCunningham. I also post the new address at http://fed.wiki.org/view/frequently-asked-questions.

I will be traveling for the next two weeks. I may be able to launch the hangout during my travels. @nrn may launch them on my behalf. (Look for his newer version of the faq.)

The hangouts remain an active and rewarding event which will continue. You can count on it.

Merci for the clarification 👍 .

clarified the hangout link that led to some confusion, as to be seen and resolved here : WardCunningham#88

I wanted to propose a hashtag for a twitter conversation paralelly to the hangout.

It could be #wikiwebchat - refering to http://mappingmashups.net/geowebchat/ .
Or like http://blog.rebellen.info/saetchmo-echochamber-livestream/ .

This broadcast thing could also be an interesting intermediate (and more private) starting point for now. I'm proposing this mainly to have a persistent chat record, as the hangout appearantly doesn't store everything. https://github.com/WardCunningham/Smallest-Federated-Wiki/wiki/Notes-from-Weekly-Google-Hangouts could also be deleted then.


Until Wiki gets concurrent real-time edits , etc.pp. A summary would already be finished at the end of each session.

Close this issue in favour of #277 ? (nicer title + shorter)

This would also seem to be a good idea, as the event will appear in the upcoming event list, and could be created well ahead of time.

While it is not yet possible to create a reoccurring hangout using events. It is possible using google+ calandar, by creating a reoccurring event and using "add video call" to add a hangout - sadly you need email addresses to invite other, and it does not appear in the G+ event list. However, it does appear to use the same URL for each hangout.

At least one other project, I know, is using Hangouts on Air, to record and make available on YouTube their weekly discussions. See TiddlyWiki Hangouts.

Wish I had the time to join you on these chats. I'm now working at Tribune Technologies (since last summer). Trying to get back into Wagn work too, working on creating 'live-edit' views and maybe using Dojo's "coweb" framework for synchronization: http://dojofoundation.org/projects/opencoweb

And as a side discussion: For practical reasons, wouldn't it be good to get rid of those /view/ compartiments in the URIs?

After updating the last minutes some minutes ago, I would have loved to scroll back in time.
As I found it quite nice the last time, Hangouts On Air is nice : Fishbowl discussion of 10 people in the hangout (leaving 2 places empty) and an uncountable number of watchers via YouTube?

Would the current community and esp. Ward like to try this out once?

In some way, "let's video chat" can also mean "let's chat with videos" so I'm posting these as inspiration:

Sorry for having gone AWOL for so long... I started my first class during this summer semester and joined yet another band, but I'm still hacking away at NDN + wiki when time allows :) hopefully be able to make it back with regularity once I settle into my new schedule

Trying to start the hangout, as both Ward and Nick are away, and I am just getting an error.
