disagree Gareth McMillan : The German "Moderator" cannot, IMHO, be directly translated into English. This is not about background watch-dogging as in proZ, it's more acting as a go between. The link is a DE site who have made the same mistake.

agree Siegfried Armbruster : Is the "moderator"/presenter" question not an AM English / UK English problem

disagree Textklick : I don't think this is meant in the same sense as Kudoz moderators. I'm sure they are talking about people live and (on screen?) during training sessions.

agree Aniello Scognamiglio (X) : talking about "chat rooms" moderator/to moderate is correct, confirmed by http://rhea.redhat.com/bboard-archive/acs_applications/000Yf...

\"What is the difference between the Native client (Windows) and the Java client?
The Java client doesn\'t require a plug-in to be downloaded and can enable attendees to get into a meeting easier and faster. Also, Mac OS and Unix users can attend using Java. However, the Java client is limited and attendees using Java can\'t be the host or presenter. Only attendees with the native client can get all of the functionality of WebEx such as sharing your own documents, applications or polling.\"

agree Gareth McMillan : Agree- it's almost like hosting a talk show as on TV or Radio.

agree gangels (X) : moderator is someone chairing a roundtable discussion. "Host" may be best. But I'd love to listen in on the "moderierten Tutoren-Chat". Must be top IQ.
