Hello

Would it be possible to include web RTC video chat in the messaging system so that users could talk in video to each other using web standards and web browsers ?

Thanks
Jean

It's planned for the Conversations API to be implemented into CB Activity. It likely will only support 1-to-1 video/voice calls on initial implementation though. I do not have a timeframe for this as we'll be focusing primarily on Symfony implementation and the future of core CB this upcoming year so massive features like that are unlikely to be implemented anytime soon. Have added a feature ticket so it's more understood this is planned.

Well that's a pity it takes this long as we have a huge project which needs this kind of features in the coming months.

Any idea of a timeframe ?

(maybe could we participate in the financing ?)

I suggest implementing it yourself or seeing if any Joomla extensions available provide video/voice chat since you need it soon. Below is the browser API. The only thing you need server side is for passing the peer token from 1 user to another.

It's just not a priority, sorry. There's tons of free software available that provides excellent video and voice chat right now that it's just a waste of development time and resources to pause other development to implement that anytime soon.

Any idea of a timeframe ?

No, core CB is my priority at this time and that's after we're done improving Joomlapolis, which we aren't as I'm currently working on a new mock-up site so I can redo all of our product pages with up to date information and screenshots. Core CB is still sitting on legacy 10 year old APIs. We need to implement Symfony and rewrite several core APIs to newer usages so our plugins can move forward with better features. Everything is being held back by old API at this point. We don't even have a unified templating API right now which we will with Symfony as we'll be using Twig. It's not something we can put off any longer, sorry.

(maybe could we participate in the financing ?)

No, we do not provide paid development here. It hurts progress for everything else to let someone with more money than everyone else dictate the flow of development.
