What is Megaphone?

What is Megaphone?
The Megaphone project is about enhancing open source chat software. Specifically, the goal is to allow ejabberd to support 1,000,000 simultaneous users. See The Plan page for more details on how I plan to solve this problem. See the About this Blog page for more details on why I created this blog.

Technical Difficulties

Previously...
  • I tried running ejabberd with megaphone: things did not go well.
  • I removed mod_megaphone for the list of ejabberd modules.
  • I made some progress in wiring up ejabberd to megaphone.

And then all hell broke loose.  First I needed to go on a short trip that prevented me from blogging for a few days.  But then the real bomb hit: my computer power supply seems to have reached the end of its short life.  

Fortunately, I have several different computers that I work on, and the ejabberd code lives on one of the machines other than the one whose power supply was fried.  Hopefully, this will only prove to be a short interruption.

But I know better.

Next time, hopefully back on the primary system.
