[Imc-communication] Re: [IMC-Tech] Problems with IRC?

[Michael Eisenmenger]

I agree with frank. If there is a finite number of connections we 
should do the math and allow one connection from each center that 
wants to particpate (there's no reason several people couldn't share 
a connection in one center). Given the length of irc meetings, also 
be aware that connection time can be quite costly in other countries 
and that dropped connections may require frequent reconnections (so 
keep some channels open).
