* Website - IRC Chat page added @ 2004-01-08 17:21 Harold L Hunt II 2004-01-08 17:51 ` Harold L Hunt II 0 siblings, 1 reply; 4+ messages in thread From: Harold L Hunt II @ 2004-01-08 17:21 UTC (permalink / raw) To: cygx I added a new page to the website to point people to our IRC chat room: http://xfree86.cygwin.com/chat.html I am finding chat very useful for discussing development (watch the channel if you are interested). I would also like to a see a larger group of people monitoring #cygwinx for questions and answering them in an interactive fashion. It is often easier to have a brief conversation with someone than it is to write long emails outlining all possibilities for their problem. See you in #cygwinx!

We have two new people in the channel now... lets get that up to 20! :) Harold Harold L Hunt II wrote: > I added a new page to the website to point people to our IRC chat room: > > http://xfree86.cygwin.com/chat.html > > I am finding chat very useful for discussing development (watch the > channel if you are interested). > > I would also like to a see a larger group of people monitoring #cygwinx > for questions and answering them in an interactive fashion.
