Introduction to IRC Activity Responses (Stage 1, Part A, Number 5)
- How do people interact? Informally. It appears everyone knows each other on a first-name basis. Lots of references to people not in the chat.
- What is the pattern of communication? Mostly linear, but with occasionall overlaps due to the nature of distributed chat. (E.g. someone starts a new topic while an old topic is still underway.)
- Are there any terms that seem to have special meaning? Lots of them ... mostly technical terms dealing with the project at hand.
- Can you make any other observations? Darci seems to do a nice job of summarizing salient points and decisions made (as should happen in real meetings, even though it doesn't :) )
