Hello Social WG Folks -
QUESTION: The Social IG would like to know if it would be OK to combine the IRC channels. IOW, instead of having both #social and #socialig, we would all use #social. I brought this up in IRC last week: (http://socialwg.indiewebcamp.com/irc/social/2015-05-29 ).
In general, except for scribing during meetings, the #socialig channel is very quiet. Thus we thought it would be good synergy to use the same channel.
ISSUE: might be if WG folks want to discuss something during the 1 hour IG call (Wednesdays; 15:00 UTC) - then there would be chatter in channel unrelated to the meeting being scribed, or people would have to wait, or open a new channel.
ALTERNATIVE: would be for us to use the #socialig channel ONLY for scribing meetings, but hang out in #social for normal day-to-day chat.
As you'll see in the log (link, above), @cwebber2 and @aaronpk both thought it would be OK. Although with a question about the chat-during-meeting that I raise above. I think I prefer the "alternative", wherein we use #socialig only for meetings. What do the rest of you think?
This question / suggestion is part of the item elf added to today's WG agenda (https://www.w3.org/wiki/Socialwg/2015-06-02#Coordination_with_IG ).
Thanks - Ann, for the IG
