Michel F was in the chat room, and when I asked him he told me to ask Evan.

So I emailed Evan:

Michel wanted to make sure you saw this:

Chatter UT Chat Revisited. Thread #416492 Message #416492

(that would be this thread)

Evan's reply:

I have been following that thread. Is there anything in particular you want me to draw from this?

Evan, as the person in charge (according to MF), will you please let some people be OP's in the chat room again.

Also, your lack of posts in this thread makes it look like you don't care. I'm sure you do, so post away!
