I was recently asked how does Open Meetings integrate with ConcourseConnect...

Once you have an Open Meetings installation up and running, go into ConcourseConnect's build.properties file and add some values...

  1. OpenMeetings API

OPENMEETINGS.URL=http://localhost:5080/openmeetings
OPENMEETINGS.USERNAME=admin
OPENMEETINGS.PASSWORD=password
OPENMEETINGS.VERSION=1.3

The version tells the client which API to use, not the version of Open Meetings itself.

With that in place, you can now turn on a 'Chat Room' in any profile by choosing 'Setup Tabs' and checking the option there. We've done some limited integration and testing. So far, the Chat Room will become a new browser window and the user will automatically log in.

If you're interested in trying this out please message me about being one of the first to install and use Connect 3.0. We'd love to have more people trying it out.

Hmm, sounds interesting. Doesn't look to hard to install, and they describe the ports needed. I imagine the OpenMeetings part could go on Amazon's EC2 for scaling up. I'll try it this weekend...

I signed up for EC2 just for kicks - have you played with that at all? I'm trying to determine which AMI to use for OpenMeetings.

I installed OpenMeetings after much work and got it to talk to Connect. Connect opens OM in a new browser tab. However, the OM appears in a tiny portion of the tab and is hard to see. It is not possible to enlarge the OM UI inside the new tab. So, I wasn't able to explore the features of the chat facility. This is interesting because when I connect to OM directly through http://localhost:5080/openmeetings I get a full window version of the software.

OpenMeetings looks quite powerful with video conferencing and desktop sharing features. I'm curious to find out how this integrates with Connect.

Any thoughts?
