Hello Kevin,
Thanks a lot!
I was mostly concerned about being bale to join the meeting on Thursday, so I really appreciate it. I'll go through the rest in advance to the meeting.
Have a great week!

Hi Agustin,
I’m fairly new around here myself, but here are some answers to your questions.
1. A good starting point is to look at the issues marked as "easyfix” [1]
2. I use IRCCloud [2]; they have free and pay plans
3. For the email alias to be active, you need to have signed the CLA and be part of a non-CLA group [3]
Hope that helps a bit.
