Yeah, the MPL applet makes things a little bit easier, you can set it up to
auto-refresh on your menu and you will know when there is people in there.

The whole thing is to avoid having people idling there all day without being
in front of their machine. IRC is like that nowadays and it's not helping.

You can join a channel with 50 people in it, say hi and having to wait 2
hours before you see a response.

MRC is much more dynamic, either it's empty or you talk with someone. The
/chatters also now displays the idle time, so you know if you have a chance
to hear back within a reasonable amount of time.

Anyway, the goal is to bring people together, I hope it works.

Cheers!
