[viff-devel] IRC channel

[Martin Geisler]

Hi guys,

I just want to let you know what I had a nice conversation today in the
IRC channel for VIFF where there were 6 guys present (and one bot). They
came from a organization that lobbies the EU for more openness:

  http://interfax.werebuild.eu/2010/05/31/werebuild-and-telecomix-cv/

It happens from time to time that people stop by and ask a question and
I normally refer them to the mailinglist. But it would be great if a
(current) VIFF develop would hang out in the channel from time to time.

Don't worry about it being distracting -- most of the time the channel
is very quiet.

Yeah, that's the idea. Now we just need some patches :-)

To further improve the communication I have started using IRC and I'm
hanging out in #viff on irc.freenode.net when I'm online.

I have not used IRC much, but I see how other projects benefit from
having a quicker and more direct form of communication than emails. So
feel free to join me!
