Hello all,

I've put a list of chat programs to test, and details of how to get
XMPP and SIP accounts if you need them:

http://etherpad.fsfe.org/j2uametMf3

The simple format to use for collecting chat results is explained
here, with examples:

Anna Morris (username Gingerling) will be helping to coordinate the
#FSFE IRC channel, and assist people participating remotely in finding
people to chat with. Feel free to grab her attention from 14.00
onwards if you need help.

I tried finding some web-based spreadsheet software to use as a
results table, but I concluded that etherpad was the best solution (I
posted my findings here: https://joindiaspora.com/posts/1952960). We
can just make the results table after the event.

This is an interesting experiment - good luck everyone, I'm looking
forward to seeing what happens!

Best,

Sam.
