Hi everyone. I've recently started developing plugins for Jazz, and I
was wondering if there was any way to open up a chat within Jazz.
Basically I would like to programmatically check the status of other
users (online/offline) and then open up chats between small groups of
people (around 3 users). I'd prefer not to go to an external chat
client, but I'm not sure how Jazz integrates the chat functionality.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Hi Ben

You can use the Jazz collaboration feature. To get started have a look
at CollaborationCore.getCollaborationService() which lets you access the
ICollaborationService. From there you can check the presence of users
and chose a collaboration provider (ICollaborationProvider) in which
session (CollaborationSession) you can create a meeting and invite other
users (CollaborationMeeting).
