But it helps to synchronize and also helps getting an idea of "what's going on". In this case we all ignored that Kernel was using WCI and relevant info failed to reach that team, IRC presence could have just give *one more chance* to avoid that. > > > > > > Usually I look at few lines and I judge my interest on the topic and decide to read more or not, it helps finding out things that are going on in AS7 for instance or RichFaces that may impact us in the long term. > > > > > > Thomas > > > > > >> > > >> On Sep 20, 2012, at 9:38 AM, Thomas Heute <theute(a)redhat.com&gt; wrote: > > >> > > >>> Not sure why GateIn WCI events are required at eXo Kernel level but *in general*, it would be great if you (and actually anyone interested by GateIn development) could join the #gatein room on IRC Freenode. The changes have been discussed there in details and it enabled great collaboration between Julien, Trong and Marek.
