Those aren't stats. By "tried" do you mean created an account and logged a SIP/XMPP client to the service? Or are actively use it? In both the FedRTC and debian case how many calls are made a day/month, what is the volume of XMPP etc? In the later case we already use both IRC and Telegram within the community, I'm not sure what value yet another text messaging service provides. What happens if it was possible to delegate a DNS record(s) and provide FAS integration and have it hosted somewhere else in the short to medium term to see how popular it is with proper named and "buddy lists" than can be migrated if it becomes overwhelmingly popular with proper stats to back it up? <snip some more> -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
