How to participate in the LCC6 remotely

Hi everyone,

So, the 6th Language Creation Conference is set to start in a few hours (at 10:00AM local time, this link should allow you to check what time that is in your time zone). As with all the previous LCCs, we strive to make it accessible to people who are unable to attend (the conlang community is stretched over the whole world, and not everyone can make the trip). So, besides recording all the presentations and making them available on Youtube later, we will, as usual, live stream all the proceedings. To watch the LCC live, just use the following link:

on Saturday, and the following one:

on Sunday (those Youtube Live Events may be changed, but I’ll update the links if necessary).

But you needn’t just watch passively! As usual, remote participants are welcome to make their voices heard via IRC. Just login to our Freenode #lcs channel (if you don’t have an IRC chat client on your computer, you can always go here. You’ll need Java installed for that page to work though) and you’ll be able to discuss with other remote participants as well as live attendees of the LCC who are also online, and you’ll be able to ask questions during Q&A sessions just like any other attendee :).

So as you can see, not being able to attend the LCC in person doesn’t mean you can’t participate!
