Introduction

This Django app is a chat-like application with some aspects of IRC but with a strong usage of message clocks.

Message clocks are always displayed and used in message to reference answer or relation with other messages.

A sample part of Tribune messages will look like this in a plain-text version : ::

16:15:27     <superman>            First
16:16:13     Anonymous coward      16:15:27 oh no you don't !
16:15:27     <superman>            16:16:13 lier !
18:39:01     Mozilla/5.0           Hello world !
18:39:05     <superman>            18:39:01 hello
18:43:22     Anonymous coward      18:39:01 yo
