Hi Peter,
It is a good idea to use email to post the source talk. It is easier to use. I would like to make this work. Can you tell me how the source talk now works?
It is a good idea to add a “header” for the discussion emails. And we can publish the working groups in the Calitko website, so some other people can join in or build other groups.
Best regards,
Bo

Hi Bo,
Thank you for the idea and organization of the conference call! Steven, thanks for participating!
I’m quite sure we’ll have more conferences in the future with even more people involved. That’ll be a good start for people to get to know each other and build working groups.
I finally today understood what the problem with source talk and gmail was. I’m wondering why nobody explained me the issue before… I actually just tried the threading feature of Thunderbird and see why these “Re:” break it.
I’ll try to do the necessary modifications to Source Talk today. I guess that in order to get messages grouped hierarchically I also need to write the Message-ID, References and In-Reply-To: MIME headers. I think it should be OK to use the URLs as IDs.
Is there any demand for posting in Source Talk by sending an email? If yes, would somebody like to take on the task of figuring out how to do that? That would involve trying out plugins for Wordpress and probably integrating them with Source Talk (some PHP knowledge would be required).
I just got the idea that we could prefix the messages of each working group with the name of the group, which could be named by the name of the class or namespace being worked on. For example, my next message could be “Connection: Using the Bridge Pattern”.
Best regards,
Peter
