    41 == WebRTC (not in use) ==
    42 
    43 WebRTC seems to require Google !Chrome/Chromium or a !FireFox ≥ v28 or so.
    44 
    45 * recommended WebRTC chat rooms:
    46   - https://opentokrtc.com/hot.peach.hurt.halloween.rib — This one claims to be fully Open Source.
    47   - https://talky.io/hot.peach.hurt.halloween.rib — This one claims to be only partially Open Source, but it supports screen-sharing (although only with Google !Chrome/Chromium) and opentokrtc.com doesn't seem to.
    48 
    49 * other WebRTC chat rooms:
    50   - https://vline.com/
    51   - https://appear.in/
    52   - https://chat.skyway.io/
     11||= IRC =||join channel "#tahoe-lafs" on irc.freenode.net (port 7000 for TLS)||
     12
     13(Z "Zulu" time refers to UTC; [http://www.timeanddate.com/time/map/ check where you are], but the meeting is tied to civil time, not UTC, so when the various countries all switch to/from DST, the meeting's UTC time changes)
     14
     15The first half of the meeting is "Nuts and Bolts" (engineering!): bug triage, discussion of current development efforts, branch and patch review, etc. After a short break, we switch to "Tesla Coils and Corpses" (science!): brainstorming of new features, analysis of other projects, and other forward-looking explorations.

     24We switch chat tools every few months, in an attempt to overcome performance problems. Tools we've used:
     25
     26* Google Hangouts
     27* https://appear.in/tahoe-lafs
     28* https://talky.io/tahoe-lafs
     29* https://vline.com/
     30* https://chat.skyway.io/
     31* https://opentokrtc.com/
     32
     33Most require a browser extension to enable screensharing.
     34
     35We frequently keep notes on an etherpad, the URL for which is posted at the start of the meeting. Patrick McDonald turns these notes into the Tahoe Weekly News.
