+Everybody needs to connect to the same IRC server and channel so they can find each other.

+You may want to leave Freenode in as a fallback server -- if his server doesn't work, use Freenode's.
+-------------
+
+It might not be good if we suddenly rushed freenode with a ton of users all at once.
+
+The fallback is our own seed system.
+
+irc.lfnet.org is pretty old and has impressive uptime.  I think it's going to be fine.
+
+We could take IRC out at some point if we want, but I'd rather ease into it and just test our own seed system as a backup for now, and I really like the complementary redundant attributes of the two different systems.
