Mezzanine Messenger

Mezzanine Messenger is a messaging and data management program used by ECKVA Network for their archive team.

Summary
Mezzanine Messenger is comprised of three programs: Mezzanine Messenger, Mezzanine Manager, and Mezzanine Alpha. It is currently assumed that Alpha is an outdated program, while Andrew Raymond noted that Messenger and Manager were both the same system.

The system has multiple functions. One of them is to function as an in-house messaging service between different employees. Another is to automatically log all activity recorded from the archive team, including producing batch reports of number of items archived, while producing logs of activity for ARKlistener. It is also possible that the ECKVA operating terminal, seen in ECKVA6, is only accessible through Mezzanine. It is unknown what other functionality it may have.

History
The development team behind Mezzanine is currently unknown. Danielle Scott, in her email to Andrew, indicated that the original development team was all gone. Whether they quit, were fired, retired, or something else happened to them is unknown. It is also unknown whether it was developed by ECKVA Network, or if it was developed by Clear Lakes Communications and was only used once ECKVA acquired the company. It is known, however, that ARKlistener was developed off of Mezzanine Alpha, and can only be accessed through there.

The Mezzanine team lead at ECKVA was Chris Galloway.

In ECKVA16, the Broadcaster is seen accessing Mezzanine Messenger to pull up a conversation between Andrew and Shelby Hawkins. After reading key information from their conversation, the system was purged, presumably deleting all other chat logs that were stored in the system.
