---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: The Ada Initiative <i...@adainitiative.org> Date: Tue, Nov 8, 2011 at 1:50 PM Subject: Ada Initiative beginning monthly IRC catchup chats
** Note: this is a one-off announcement. If you want to receive further updates of the chat times, please see below for where announcements will go. ** The Ada Initiative would love to be able to have an occasional real time chat with supporters and fill you in on what we're up to and what problems you have that we could be helping solve. As a one-off, the first chat will be held next week, then after that they will be held on the first Thursday of the month (UTC time). The chats will be advertised in the Ada Initiative calendar ( http://adainitiative.org/calendar/ ) and the supporters list ( http://lists.adainitiative.org/listinfo.cgi/supporters-adainitiative.org ) = Location of the channel = Network: Freenode IRC server: chat.freenode.net (see Freenode server information for more info: http://freenode.net/irc_servers.shtml ) Channel: #adainitiative A web chat interface is available at http://webchat.freenode.net/ Enter a nickname of your choice in "Nickname" and "#adainitiative" in "Channels". = Next chat time = The next chat will be on Thursday 17 November at 2330 UTC, for your local time please see Time and Date's listing. If you want can you may join the channel now if you want to make sure you see the meeting. = Note on channel moderation = We're not up to following or moderating a fulltime chat channel, so the channel will be set to voice-only (which will mean most people can't communicate with the channel) when a public chat isn't taking place. You're welcome to lurk in there fulltime if that's easier for your IRC client, but there won't be activity there outside regular meetings. If you have any concerns about the channel or anything that happens in it, contact i...@adainitiative.org. = Note on times = The time of the meeting may change depending on local daylight savings time. We will update the calendar and the announcement appropriately when it does. Also, because of Valerie's and my physical locations, these are being held at relatively good times for the US (and the Americas) and Australia (and New Zealand, Pacific and East Asia). We apologise to people in Europe, Africa, the Middle East and much of Asia: we may at some point hold a meeting more conveniently for you. _______________________________________________ Wikimediaau-l mailing list Wikimediaau-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaau-l
