@patcon is fluent in these types of connections i believe -- tag, you're it!

heh, i think I caught @krzysztof.madejski about this in another slack (oh god, too many slack BRIDGE PLS BRIDGE), but:

I've been using this glue piece to run matterbridge on heroku, which allows bridging between lots of platforms -- details in readme:
https://github.com/edgi-govdata-archiving/matterbridge-heroku#readme

I'm having sober second thoughts on whether riot is the better choice -- it's not a slim bridge tool but rather a full messaging tool that has a very robust bridge ecosystem:

(for now, matterbridge seems easiest. each room needs to be bridged manually, but it's much simpler to setup, even if it does require editting a text file on github :slightly_smiling_face: )

on another subject, it was announced at October's Google Summer of Code mentor in a lightning talk that Jitsi now has autotranscription thanks to a student's work. Has anyone kicked the tires on this? I'm wondering how it compares to Sayit.
Cool, but I don't think sayit have the auto transcriptions, does it?
It’s not built-in to SayIt. we have evaluated a few solutions. For English, CastingWords is default ( https://github.com/audreyt/archive.tw/blob/gh-pages/castingwords2pad.pl -> pad2an) but we’ve used Trint as well.
For Mandarin, we’re working with AILabs.tw ASR team. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfVsIHhEdDA
(The Jitsi work is a bridge to Google Cloud API)
++ 👍👍👍👍👍
how are the sayit transcripts currently created?

matterbridge-heroku - A Heroku buildpack for deploying EDGI's Slack bridge.

Over the past two weeks or so we’ve been improving Riot’s Slack bridge enormously: making it as seamless as possible to link the members…

@patcon commented on @lizbarry’s file screenshot of the graph commons: now... just to figure out a way to auto-generate/update it based on Slack timezones... 🙂

nobody from DC after I left?! huh

先承認你就是沒有人

patcon 00:18:11
@thebestsophist we were just going by timezones, which are a little loose and favour "America/New_York" 🙂

but we were trying to supplement it with connections that show when people are connecting two communities. We should prob put you in DC too, huh?

Nice viz! How much work did you put in that? It would be super cool for Code for All's Slack 🙂
i would estimate the two of us put in a couple hours each, and i agree with Patcon that the winning state would be to somehow automate this directly from slack to graphcommons
