Hi you all!!

Sorry I couldn't make it for last IRC meeting... Easter vacations :)
It seems the meeting was very fruitful and big progress was made! that's
great!

About, the option to calls instead of IRC, I continue preferring IRC, I
think it's better because we can  keep a written log(specially for the
notes) and It's also easier to follow for non-native English speakers.

cheers,

Marianyka
