[sword-devel] SWORD Virtual Coffee/Tea

I have Skype, Facebook Messenger, Zoom, and I think we still have Blue
jeans through work. At least we did at the beginning of the pandemic.

There is also Google Duo, which is free to use and I do leverage it
frequently.

Maybe now is also a good time to consider setting up a SWORD channel in one
of the free popular messaging systems not named IRC? Matrix, or Mumble, or
whatever the cool kids are using these days.
