I have been logging into #felix at irc.codehaus.org but if there is
an official apache IRC server then perhaps we should use that. There
must be plenty of IRC clients available with good notification
mechanisms. I use Colloquy on the Mac which notifies me of new
messages and more specifically any messages directed to me or with my
name in the body.
But I do a lot of communication with other felix devs using ICQ, MSN
and Skype.
Greetings, Marcel
