<p>Fossdd: </p> <hr /> <div>= Current communications = <br /> == IRC ==<br /> <br /> You can find us in '''#milliways''' on irc.hackint.org. Use port 6697 and connect with SSL enabled.<br /> <br /> == Mailing list ==<br /> <br /> We have a mailing list. Subscribe by sending an empty mail to '''milliways-subscribe@ramdrive.org'''.<br /> <br /> == Matrix ==<br /> <br /> We have a Matrix room at '''#milliways:hackint.org'''.<br /> <br /> There is a public space with pointers to all relevant rooms here:<br /> https://matrix.to/#/!iPRTmLJGAARJMIXxiX:milliways.info?via=milliways.info&amp;via=matrix.org&amp;via=fairydust.space<br /> <br /> = improve the communications situation =<br /> <br /> == use cases ==<br /> <br /> The most critical use cases are in my opinion:<br /> <br /> === tickets are availible for sale ===<br /> <br /> time critical informations before the event<br /> <br /> === food is ready ===<br /> <br /> time critical informations on the event<br /> <br /> === how do we improve the Sinclair C5 ===<br /> <br /> not time critical discussions <br /> <br /> == possible solutions ==<br /> <br /> In both cases time for communication is critical. I have been considering<br /> <br /> * improve the use of existing and already used tools<br /> <br /> * agree on one chat tool that everyone uses<br /> <br /> * build an app for android and iphone to push info on people's phones<br /> <br /> * push text messages<br /> <br /> * your idea here....?<br /> <br /> === mobile app ===<br /> * needs to be availible for android and ios<br /> * just a mobile app with MQTT that connects to a MQTT server and subscribes to the relay. the relay can send messages out to every subscriber, the app will show them as push notification<br /> * would be nice if the app app is availible in the app stores.<br /> * the app should be less than 10mb in size (that way people will not remove it to regain space)<br /> * the app should be as simple as possible (autostart on reboot of the phone, just shows a screen with recent messages)<br /> * The app could be a Web-App as well, that way we would have all logic on the server and the app really just pushes the notifications and is a quick-link to recent messages.<br /> <br /> ==== ntfy ====<br /> <br /> Hey, i guess what you're searching is https://ntfy.sh.<br /> * its sends and receives notifcations via websocket. <br /> * they've an app for android, ios and web, all can send and receive notifications<br /> * different topics, markdown formatting, attachments<br /> * you can set different alert priorities, the highest one beeps even in do-not-disturb and the lowest sends only a little notification <br /> * i'm using it for my personal prometheus alerts and i can say it's really reliable<br /> * Apache 2.0 and GPLv2 licensed and is really simple to self-host<br /> <br /> if you have questions, feel free to reach out to me: https://matrix.to/#/@fossdd:matrix.org<br /> <br /> === use a chat solution ===<br /> * There are a lot of chat solution that can be scripted<br /> * Don't invent the wheel again<br /> * Probably use a notify group in jabber matrix .... that is splittend from normal channels for better filtering an notification</div>
