Inconsistent use of the term "ROOM" #207

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
==Description== 

There is inconsistency in the use of terms between "group chat" and "room". For 
example, the 
tooltip over the button uses room but the subsequent dialogue uses group chat.

Likewise, as the group chat opens it says the room is locked, then unlocked. We 
would like it to 
say group chat in all instances as we envisage that in the future there might 
actually be a room 
concept, but this would have to be subject to a different access control 
mechanism as users 
could elect to join rather than be invited.

For clarity, a chat is by invite between two people and does not persist once 
they both close the 
conversation. 
A group chat is the same but between more than two and it does not persist once 
the last person 
closes the conversation. 
A room does persist even when everyone has left the conversation. This is a 
future aspiration.

==Analysis== 
This might needs changes to static CSS classes, therefore not straightforward 
and possibly 
should ask Emite to do this. 
Believe that this changes the internationalisation classes. 
May be able to override messages to change them to specific messages. 

What steps will reproduce the problem?

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Please provide any additional information below.

Ok to all the UI issues (like tooltips): we will review and change all the 
inconsistent 
terms at the internationalization classes.

But the messages that says "This room is locked" or "This room is unlocked" 
come 
directly from the server (and then we can not controll the content and it is 
very server 
dependant). We would have to find a way to change this.
Alternatives:
1) Do not display the server messages and only the chat/groupchat/room status. 
That implies block any message from the server (currently only locked/unlocked 
messages, but probably others in the future)
2) Replace every "room" word to "group chat" in any server message (?)
3) ¿Suggestions?
