+to both support and development discussions. If you have a question,
+suggestion, or just want to know about Bcfg2, please drop in and say hi.

+Administrative Note
+===================
+
+If the IRC logging stops working for a while, coordinate on #bcfg2 and
+then bug **feb** on #irclogger (freenode), and stick around on that
+channel until you get an answer (**feb** is great, but busy and in a
+non-US time zone). Actually as long as **ilogger2** is logged in you
+should be okay (**feb** looks at the logs).
+
+If you have private logs for the period of time **ilogger2** was off the
+channel, you can convert them to the `format shown here`_, and **feb**
+will incorporate them into the online logs. Be sure to strip out any
+private messages in your logs first :-)
