Drupal for NGOs - April 2009
Drupal For NGOs is a monthly series of events aimed at empowering NGOs to implement and manage their websites by knowing which modules to use and how to configure them. Each month will cover a topic in detail, showcase recent projects, and feature a Drupal question and answer session.
Which topic is covered each month will be decided by a poll, so if there's something you'd like to know more about please cast your vote or make a suggestion.

Community Discussion/Chat Facility
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to host a meeting between a dozen or so members of my site next week.
At it's most basic, we want to be able to have an irc/skype type discussion, with everyone being able to make text-based contributions.
It seems like there's no stable way to do this through Drupal, with Chatroom being the most likely candidate but too unstable for important meetings (is it unfair of me to say that?). I'm looking into integrating flashchat but haven't gone down that route yet.
