clearing/logging text in chat pod from Ruby admin library

[schwabsauce]

We are using a Rails application to manage our LCCS rooms.

We would like to clear the text in the chat pods in response to events that occur in the Rails app.

Additionally, it would be great if we could save a log of the chat before it is cleared.

It is possible to clear the text using the RoomCleaner class in the rtc.util library.  However we have not determined if this functionality is in the Ruby library, or any of the provided server libraries.

Using our flash client-side code to clear the chat pod also seems unwieldy because the client would need to have admin permissions.  We have hypothesized that it might be possible to temporarily grant these privileges to the client for this purpose.

this and a lot more will be possible using the server to server APIs that we are making available with the next version of the SDK (coming soon).

Since we don't know when to expect the next version of the SDK we attempted to clear the chat pod by granting owner privileges to our clients.

We were able to make them owners.  Our attempt to clear the chat pod didn't work.

But the more puzzling issue was that we were no longer able to publish video as owners.

Is this the correct behavior or were we missing something?
