The BBB system apparently has a chat window, but it's not clear *exactly* who
is control of it or how it is managed. I have asked if an IRC channel could be
opened before each day's presentations start, but haven't heard back yet.
Because it's a system that everyone is unfamiliar with it's quite possible that
connections might fail for some reason, so a *known* reliable fall-back for
communication is pretty important.

I appreciate that the Uni is pretty tied up with higher (frequently changing)
priorities at this time, but information has been worryingly sparse.

Will.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
