DIFH-iceroothi, first of all i must say that irc is a very good place for support but what about putting an web based irc client on the ubuntu-pages, so that everyone can easily access the irc-support without any knowlegde of irc-clients?01:49
DIFH-icerootmost of the people dont know irc and dont know the #ubuntu channel01:49
tritiumDIFH-iceroot: that's debatable02:16
DIFH-icerootwhy?02:17
tritiumDIFH-iceroot: it's your opinion that "most" don't know about IRC or the channel, but I would disagree.02:19
DIFH-iceroota normal windows user which want to test ubuntu and need support dont know irc imo02:19
tritiumWho said anything about a normal windows user?02:20
DIFH-icerootit doesnt matter if the user is a windows user or another user but there are many user out there which dont know irc, freenode, #ubuntu or how to handle an irc client02:24
DIFH-icerootso my idea is to give these users a possibilty to use the very good irc-support02:24
tritiumDIFH-iceroot: the "ubuntu pages" you refer to above include http://help.ubuntu.com.  Some simply navigation points to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToGetHelp, which includes a link to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRCResourcePage.02:27
tritiums/simply/simple02:27
DIFH-icerootof course there is a very good web-help02:28
DIFH-icerootbut there must be a reason why there is also an irc-channel!?02:28
tritiumwhich points to IRC help02:28
tritiumYes, read that last URL above.02:28
DIFH-icerootmy idea was just something ike most webshops has, a link wih support on the frontpage with "support" which is using an irc-web-client02:29
PiciIts listed right under here: http://www.ubuntu.com/support02:29
tritiumWe really don't have stats to support a claim about how many ubuntu users do or do not know IRC, really.02:29
tritiumAye, Pici's URL is even more straightforward.02:30
DIFH-icerootbut the user has to install an irc client, choose the network and type in the channel. and he had to know the correct langaue channel, for exampe a link on ubuntu.de redirects the irc-client to #ubuntu-de02:31
DIFH-icerootjust one click for live support02:31
tritiumLike I said, we don't have statistics to suggest it is a strong need.02:36
naliothDIFH-iceroot: pidgin is installed by default, and the user only has to start it to find themselves in our lovely channel02:37
DIFH-icerootok, it was just an idea02:38
tritiumDIFH-iceroot: and a good suggestion.  Thank you.  We appreciate the feedback.02:38
