To connect to IRC, join with the web client (via the 'join IRC' link below) or connect an IRC client to irc.w3.org.
To ask a question, type q+ to … (e.g., ‘q+ to ask what is lifo’ or ‘q+ to comment on slide 7’). To add a question for later discussion, use question+ … (e.g., ‘question+ Other feedback?' or ‘question+ Topics for next week’) either on #ac or in a breakout session IRC channel.
