Dev Chat -- wouldn't this be a good use of the CMS?
 

Seriously ...

A page could house the HTML you used to insert the chat room and it would more appropriate than a locked forum and thread.

A transcript of the chat could be housed as an article* comments optional.


I think this is an example of where [we] are stuck inside of the box and not utilizing the tools [we] are creating.

It also empahsizes how the UI design needs to be improved so people SEE such announcements.
