melvster: curious, you've started writing an open source version of slack? how far along are you?
#
melvster
AdamB: very early days ... here's a screenshot ... should get in good shape this Q and the next ... http://melvin.rww.io/workspace/uploads/webidscreenshot.png
#
melvster
AdamB: sent you a PM
#
melvster
have only been working on it 2 weeks, but the prototype is starting to be usable
#
AdamB
very cool
#
AdamB
i was looking at it to see how it might change the collaboration patterns of teams
#
melvster
yeah I think it's a valid paradigm
#
AdamB
for context, i too work for boeing. i created our internal social collaboration platform
#
AdamB
back in early 2008
#
melvster
AdamB: oh cool ... I met AnnB at TPAC a couple of years ago, I believe you couldnt make it, and she was there in your stead ...
#
melvster
i heard about the boeing platform
#
melvster
quite interesting
#
melvster
iirc you use LDAP?
#
melvster
oh it was on halloween 2 years ago so a lot of folks were double booked
#
melvster
AdamB: reusing w3c standards imho is a plus because it allows lots of integrations ... well that's an area slack already excels, but with linked data you can push things perhaps even further
#
AdamB
yep, i have to two daughters so missing Halloween many years in a row gets problematic
#
melvster
yeah were lots of conflicts that year
#
melvster
had lunch with AnnB: she spent 2 days with us in the social web workshop

melvster
must be a challenge building a system for so many employees
#
AdamB
i would agree with your "reusing w3c standards imho is a plus because it allows lots of integrations" .... i am interested in trying to make that come true within a company like boeing
#
melvster
AdamB: great, happy to help any way I can ... all my work is MIT license, so it can be reused, it's based of the linked data platform work Arnaud just got to REC :)
#
AdamB
i presented about it at tpac 2009 http://www.w3.org/2009/Talks/Boeing-tpac09.pdf

re: http://socialwg.indiewebcamp.com/irc/social/2015-03-10/line/1426029991408 the "lots of hoops" is due to Slack's requirement that people are specifically invited into an organization by an admin
#
aaronpk
rather than have people email me to be added, I made a way for people to claim an @indiewebcamp.com email address so they can add themselves
