Concur with Markie. IRC has the larger capacity than skype and its client is free. If you mean the voice chat, instead of text base conversation, as a non native speaker of English, and as Transcom chair, regarding the potential translation, I strongly oppose to have our regular meeting on voice chat.

Look, would you consider using skype for some of these discussions?
I'm not really used to using it a lot but it would seem friendlier than
IRC (by itself)
Have put a link to a Skypecast room I just set up, on this page
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Communication_Projects_Group (bottom right) It could be left open all the time, if it's a useful thing. I can send the password if yu want.
hmm skype, comercial and requires downloads. also its not used by CPG and IMO irc is fine and is used by many people to communicate normally. you have also been informed before of the different options of how to use IRC and to me it just seems like you want to use this because its convienent for you but its not to me so hey we go round in circles, but why change??
