[Building Sakai] chat in presence

[Sloane, James]

I uploaded a patch in http://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-18574
It's only something simple but it seems to do the job.

I've done some mods to the presence tool that does this, you can click someones name and send them a chat request that opens the chat tool. I don't have the code with me but I'll upload it to a jira on Monday.

Chuck,

I thought about it and when I looked the code over, it felt to me that you could do it all in the presence servlet with a bit of clever Javascript and no persistence.
Nice and surgical just use the presense framework as it exists.

I would probably do a tiny pop-up window rather than a popup iframe.  I would not try to make it a full replacement for the chat tool, hoping that if folks really wanted to talk a long time - they would just use the chat tool.

Just thinking out loud.

Is anyone working on a text chat to other people in the site, presumably triggered by clicking on their name in the presence list? I have in mind something like the facebook chat. I'd be inclined to use the infrastructure from chat rooms rather than going outside to another chat server, to avoid having to synchronize accounts with another service.
