Comment on Da Open Source Executive Strategy Summit by Antoine Toulme

But Ralph, my CEO has a big attention deficit disorder.

So sitting down all day to listen to stuff he has access to through analysts reports, our lawyers, and a couple of lunches with innovators is not good enough, in my humble opinion, to retain his attention.

So - tell your CEO to show.

He’s be happy.
We’d be happy.

Thanks
Ralph

Comment on IRC and newsgroups by jacek

That’d be cool. But for how many questions appearing on IRC that’d be useful? Who’d decide to send a post? Who’d figure in post’s sender field?
Maybe better personally redirect questioner to newsgroup? If he won’t go there, then his question wasn’t worth posting.

Comment on CDT on IRC ? by Oisin

Better to have an #eclipse-cdt channel, and then add a command to KOS-MOS that just replies “go to #eclipse-cdt” that can be invoked when someone asks a pertinent CDT question.

Specialization is the order of the day, methinks.

I’ve also logged into it a few times. And the signal to noise is a huge issue. I’d much rather take the time to compose a reply on newsgroups, the mailing list, or bugzilla if it comes to that. At least then someone with the same issue has a chance of finding a response through google…

Well, it’s got worse I think. Eventually, you could log in, and every time you have a recurring question, add a command to KOS-MOS to make it easy for rcjsuen and others like me to reply automatically.

Dealing with people with poor English is hard, but just imagine dealing with Frenchies…

I used to log on to it regularly, but I found that I was constantly swamped with questions. And not particularly good ones. 95% of the tiem it was issues with GCJ screwing up Eclipse, or general “I don’t know how to create C programs properly” issues that had nothing to do with CDT itself. Dealing with all the people with poor English was an issue at times too.

If the signal to noise ratio were better, I’d log on more probably, but I found it was taking too much away from my productivity, for not a lot of good use of my time.

No, Chris, I’ll keep my feed truncated since this is my personal weblog. The BPMN modeler weblog will always be fully available as a feed for PlanetEclipse though.

Cool, thanks for getting the word out Antoine.

You may also want to consider setting up your blog options so people get a full feed instead of just a bit when getting syndicated by PlanetEclipse.
