Or are we all really just antisocial? Gather.town seems to me to be a work in progress. The way it leaves the camera on even if the window isn't visible is clearly a bug (even if it was intentional.) I think it would help to take a tip from jabber and other IM apps and provide people a way to provide hints about whether they want people to talk to them, and also particularly if the window isn't visible, if someone asks to talk, a way to pop up a request to which you can say yes or various kinds of no's. This would make it a lot less painful to leave it active while you're doing other stuff. If we want to make virtual meetings more like real ones, when you leave a meetecho session it should dump you into the virtual hallway, not the agenda. -- Regards, John Levine, johnl@xxxxxxxxx, Primary Perpetrator of "The Internet for Dummies", Please consider the environment before reading this e-mail. https://jl.ly
