Do you all know about Userplane? They offer a variety of audio/video chatting applications.

They have a list of developers who will integrate the Userplane application into any online community's user database.

However, as far as I know, Eve is not opensource. It's a proprietary web application, right? So, it's like a black box.

Well, in our case, we've been using Groupee/Eve for half a decade. We have nearly 9,000 registered and active users and triple that number of guests who have become accustomed to using Eve. We're wedded to Eve and will not change providers.

But our community LOVES the Userplane chat, too.

If only Groupee developers would pow-wow with Userplane developers and find a way to integrate, our community would be overjoyed.

What's the chance of that ever happening?

Cheers,

If they will integrate it into any online application then why not use the Eve Simple Auth API? Seems to me as it should work. We have a lot of customers using it.

You can find the documentation for it here. There is more on the subject, and an example php script here.

Hmmmm. Sounds plausible. I've printed out the Simple Auth API PDF and will review.

Thank you!
