AW: [Mapbender-dev] IRC on freenode #mapbender

[Samson, Marko]

It was impossible for me to connect to the irc (ports blocked).
Whats the fruit of the irc?
Are there some new facts that everyone should know? What about a litttle roundup of the IRC for the devlist?

CU,
Marko

PS: How does it work with the html-client?
