11 years ago Here's something we've been thinking in the Code Mentors discussion: Remove the "fear of the channel" by only inviting people who have attended events, or that we know. Maybe you have been to three events, and then you get an invite to the community. This also forces in-person relationships, instead of just web-based. Thoughts?

11 years ago I like the idea of inviting people to the channel who you have met in person. This keeps out trolls and also fosters stronger in-person relationships. But I wonder how much overhead this would be to keep track of who has been to an event?

11 years ago Idea: If users have an account, can we put the responsibility on them to set the number of times they've attended, and that let's them into the chat? This isn't perfect security, but in a few lines of code we can get 98% of the way to limited access + security.

11 years ago yeah, maybe we can make an RSVP feature for mezzanine.events and tie it their User profile, so we have a record of how many times they attended. http://www.coderaising.org/events/code-raising-kickoff/

This django plugin (http://gnotty.jupo.org/irc/) makes it easy to provide a web-based chat interface to any IRC chat channel. might make it easier for the newbies to join in the real-time chat without having to learn all the IRC stuff first.
