While all official development takes place on the mailing lists and the Savannah trackers,
a lot of discussions are had on IRC as well. Everybody is welcome to join and follow these channels, but please
respect the below guidelines if you want to participate.
# Asking Questions
-Please follow these [guidelines](http://catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html)
-when asking your question. Namely: spend some time trying
-to solve the problem on your own (e.g., [search the web](http://www.google.com),
-use this wiki, etc.), show us that you did so when you
-ask your question, and provide as many relevant details as possible
-reproducing them as exactly as possible.

+# Regular Meetings
+
+Starting in early 2008, there have been regular IRC meetings held between the
+(now former) [[Google Summer of Code|community/gsoc]] students and their
+mentors. These meetings turned out to considerably help student-mentor
+interactions, and other developers regularely took part, too. For this reason,
+we decided to continue having these meetings, even if it's not currently Google
+Summer of Code time. The meetings take place in the **`#hurd` channel every
+Monday and Thursday at 10:30 UTC** and are open to any interested party. So,
+everyone, take your chance to chat with GNU Hurd developers!
