[ImageJ-devel] ImageJ developers chat room

[Curtis Rueden]

Hi everyone,

Well, upon further testing, the chat room doesn't seem to be working anyway.
Maybe conference.jabber.org doesn't support users from other servers.
Perhaps it would be easier to switch to IRC like Fiji. Anyone have a
preference?
