Just wanted to let you know that IRC may turn out to be the only option
on Saturday :(
The university is closed for the rest of today (we were forced out of
office) and there is a possibility of it remaining closed tomorrow as

Saturday, but I should have some idea by tomorrow and will post an update.
So being prepared for a virtual meeting is a good idea...
