For all kinds of live discussions we use #xoreos @ Libera IRC channel. All xoreos developers get an operator status there, so if you have some questions, talk to them. There are several notes about usage of this medium:

  • IRC is not the best place for informing everyone about some important development conclusions. I.e. when you discussed something and came up with a solution, it's best to e-mail results to xoreos-devel. That is, don't expect everyone to know that you uttered something at #xoreos.
  • All developers who want to get operator status should register with NickServ. Assistance with registration is provided here.
  • Most people on Libera have so-called anti-spam feature turned on. That is, you will not be able to PM them unless you registered with NickServ
