#omnimaga-fr returns & OmniURL update
« on: November 16, 2010, 04:38:33 am »
After many requests, we have decided to bring back the French Omnimaga IRC channel, after it was abandoned in 2007. Since the french TI community hasn't been very active on IRC in the past 4 years, we were relunctant about restarting #omnimaga-fr at first. However, since the last few months, there have been an increase in french users on the forums, some of which have been using the current #omnimaga channel via OmnomIRC, so with the requests, we have decided to re-open #omnimaga-fr and the channel is already publicly logged by NetBot45, like #omnimaga .

In the future, there are possibilities that OmnomIRC will be usable with the French channel, if Netham45 manages to find time to update the shout box to allow switching between both channels via cookie-based settings. For now, you will need to use an IRC client like X-Chat, mIRC or Mibbit then Google information on how to connect to EFnet. Alternatively, you can attempt at using the Java chat link at the top of the shout box, then if you connect successfully, type the command /join #omnimaga-fr to open the channel.

Besides that, Netham45 also updated OmniURL shortener to support forum attachments and file archive downloads. So now here are examples on how links can be shortened (with the syntax in parenthesizes):

-Attachment: http://omniurl.tk/a/5232/4376 (a/Topic ID/File ID)
-File info page: http://omniurl.tk/f/591 (f/Download ID)
-File download: http://omniurl.tk/d/591 (d/Download ID)

This is nice.  :thumbsup: With TI-bank being active and the large influx of french speaking users, I'm sure many people will find this useful. =)

Yep, can't wait to see how the French channel will be active. I find that it's a kinda great idea, since I seen some french conversations on the main channel.

Yeah it just appears when you join the channel or at the top of the bar, if your IRC client is set to show channel topics. If you use OmnomIRC, you have very little chances to see it. But yeah Netham45 made up the slogan about 2 years ago. It was used in another of my channel then moved to #omnimaga back then. :P

Haha, I lol'd at the acronym ;D
I think it would be very hard to find a similar slogan in French, indeed.

Anyway, that's a great idea to bring back the French Omnimaga IRC channel. :)
I guess that more and more people will use it when kindermoumoute's Axe Parser tutorial will be released.

I never noticed the acronym.

Anyway, this seems like a good idea, especially now with more French people here. The omniurl additions are going to be pretty useful too.

Juju and Genolo were potential new ops for a while. I haven't added Genolo yet, though, because he is less active lately.
