I wonder if Google has fixed their GTalk <-> Hangouts bridge

what was broken?

Messages show up from both sides now

hmm

stpeter: well, messages from XMPP to GTalk would go in a black hole if the other party didn't use the GTalk service

(only Hangouts)

that seems to have changed, as my messages to intosi from Gajim ended up in his (and my) Hangouts

ralphm, FWIW I heard on the grapevine that there has been some internal backtracking on the issue of federation

I didn't get my hopes up... but it seems like perhaps it's true

MattJ: not holding my breath yet, but that'd be interesting

MattJ: of course it did generate quite the shitstorm

MattJ: and people are *still* tweeting about it

ralphm: yeah but those people still tweeting about it are just laggards ;-)

stpeter: while those are among them, in general I'd say no

stpeter: so, Summit #14. I see we have 9 signups so far. Do we have a plan?

stpeter: and can I help you in any way?

ah that reminds me, I have some phone calls to make
