How to participate

Meetings are held 2 times during each weekend. Part 2 of the meeting will follow, 16 hours after the start of part 1. You can choose the most appropriate meeting time or you can participate twice. Topic of each part is the same.

We primarily will be using Voxli voice chat room for meetings, but you are also advised to use IRC channel. Please note, that Voxli chat is free to use only while in beta. In case of problems with Voxli, meetings will be moved to IRC.

Since Voxli is voice chat, please prepare your microphone with speakers. Best option is headset with mic and try to avoid standalone speakers with mic.
