Is it possible to mirror conversations in SL into a Jabber chat-room and vice-versa? I'm working for Cambrian House, and we're trying to build a space for CH community members who also belong to Second Life to join in on our weekly meetings. We've got webcam streaming working, but not all of our community members are keen on participating through the SL client (it being heftier then running QuickTime + a chat room client).

Is it possible to have conversations running in both environments and having say SL make calls to a Jabber server to sync up the rooms?

My scripting knowledge is basic, but if someone assured me it should be possible (or pointed to an existing solution) I can try make it happen.

I imagine barriers might be:
- too many calls needed from SL to Jabber server exceeding some LL imposed limit
- impossible to monitor the conversations on our SL property

Thanks for any advice.
