[Info-Ingres] #ingres IRC channel on freenode.net

[grof at rogers.com]

Hi Everyone,

Following up on this a week in. So far so good. We've seen the number
of people in the IRC channel steadily rise. Today there were 20 people
pretty much constantly. The questions have been good. A huge thank you
to those who have been answering the questions and helping people out.
Someone commented to me in private that a quick question that would
have taken them hours to find the answer to was answered pretty much
immediately and they really appreciated it.

We've also had a number of Google summer of code students swing by and
ask us questions. No surprise that the ones that pop by to talk put in
an application.

The best part has been a number of ideas about how to solve things or
ways to improve the community build and the product. Smart people in
the same room (provided they don't kill each other) seems to make
things happen.

Thank you, this is great.

Andrew
