 cicalese | I asked. Eagerly awaiting a reply. | 15:28:24 |

| cicalese | If somebody is not a member of the community, can they still see the room list? | 15:30:30 |
| darenwelsh | I just had to share with you one of the worst tools we're forced to use. This is called "Fox" and it's supposed to solve "all" the scheduling issues within flight operations. Look at this portal! Just look at how disgusting it is! | 15:30:56 |
| darenwelsh | The "play" icons are so it will load that part of the page (that frame, I should say) | 15:31:23 |
| cicalese | nice . . . | 15:32:01 |

I couldn't.
| 15:32:44 |
 hexmode | I invited you, sabinemelnicki | 15:34:30 |
| cicalese | OK, I got an answer. You can currently only have 1 admin for a community. And, communities are currently invitation only. However, they are working on "anyone can join" semantics for communities. | 15:35:09 |
| cicalese | If we published a link to the community, would people be able to request an invitation? Or do you have to individually invite them all? | 15:36:17 |
| cicalese | If the latter, the community in its current form doesn't help us much and only serves to keep hexmode really busy. | 15:36:54 |
| hexmode | This interface is more bleeding edge: https://riot.im/develop/ | 15:37:47 |

| sabinemelnicki | how would I know? no notification. no "community" sidebar. no option to join in the community itself. hm. confusing. but I do what worked out well in the past: wait a bit. | 15:38:15 |
| darenwelsh | I'm also confused how I was able to join this channel yesterday before today joining the mwstake "community". So where is this channel located in the ether? | 15:38:57 |
| hexmode | darenwelsh: how did you see your invite | 15:39:11 |
| hexmode | to the community | 15:39:18 |
 bryandamon | I had the same problem yesterday (Daren & Sabine) | 15:39:41 |
| hexmode | the channel is open to all even if you aren't in the community | 15:39:47 |
| cicalese | It seems that "rooms" are things in their own right and do not need to be assigned to a community. Communities are ways of grouping rooms, but are optional. | 15:39:55 |
| darenwelsh |
+mwstake:matrix.org -- link to group
you posted it
| 15:40:00 |
| hexmode | darenwelsh: but did you do anything to join? | 15:40:31 |
| darenwelsh | so we just happen to have the only "General" channel? | 15:40:37 |
| darenwelsh | yes, I had to click something | 15:40:50 |
| darenwelsh | it's also confusing how when I click on things, it takes me to them in this browser tab and not another. So I never know "where" I am. | 15:41:11 |
| hexmode | ok, makes sense. | 15:41:12 |
| cicalese | So, there is a room name and a room address. The name is General, but the address is unique. | 15:41:13 |
 rundg | I had the same problem too... clicked link to the room to get "in", but needed to be invited to the community (by @hexmode) to see other 'MEZA' room | 15:41:36 |
| darenwelsh | per the URL, isn't it "mwstake-general"? | 15:41:40 |
