Announce: A2Central 'Downunder' chat

["roughana" <andrew.roughan@writeme.com>]

Calling everyone who's awake between 9pm and 11pm Australian Eastern
Summer Time on Friday nights in February to visit the #a2c.chat
channel on the A2Central IRC server.

That's probably likely to be Aussies, Kiwis, expats in Japan or people
in Europe who don't have a day job... but everyone is welcome.

Discussion topics could include where participants are located,
interests, projects, surplus items, ideas for what else to do when
travelling to Kfest, courier services for moving stuff around the
globe, etc, etc.

Personally, I'd like to have a better idea of who's around the area
and see if we can form local user groups of people interested in the
Apple II. A local wanted/buy/sell/swap/trade mailing list is another
idea for consideration.

The chat will be hosted on irc.a2central.com, channel #a2c.chat - use
your favorite IRC client or a web-based resource like IRC@Work. http://
www.ircatwork.com/

That's 4am-6am Central time, 2am-4am Pacific, 10am-12pm UTC on
*Friday* (not early Saturday morning)

If you can't make the chat time but want to get involved, feel free to
followup here and/or send me an email.

Cheers,
Andrew at apple2 dot org
