Yes, Leafy Chat was a totally separate project built by myself, Alex Gaynor, and Chris Wanstrath for the Django Dash a couple years ago. Leafy Chat was a pure web IRC client. Convore is inspired by IRC but not based on the protocol and functions a bit differently. For example, Convore has the concept of topics, which is not in IRC.
- apgwoz 16y agoTo be fair, IRC has the concept of topic, but it's per channel. Channels can't have multiple official topics, but, as we all know can definitely have multiple off-topic conversations. I've been using convore and thinking about it in terms of asynchronous IRC with sub-channels. (i.e. each group is a channel, and each topic is a sub-channel composed of the same channel members, with a different topic.)
- axod 16y agoIRC Topics: #firefox #firefox-dev #firefox-users
- true_religion 16y agoThose are channels and more like Convore Groups. A topic is more like a forum topic/thread.
- saurik 16y agoI would say a convore group is more like an IRC network, and a convore topic is more like an IRC channel.
