People who are using IRC at sxsw might want to contribute, here
Freenode is a non-profit that provides free internet relay chat to free/open source projects. Freenode godfather lilo is letting us use freenode at sxsw even though sxsw is a commercial project.
It would be cool to repay his generosity by contributing.
(I have no affiliation with freenode other than as a user)
