Telegram is dead simple. Things like straight mentioning a user, 
"complex" in IRC if you don't have a proper client, can be done 
in telegram with a right click.

I understand many of you won't be interested. For the rest, the 
supergroup is already up. Just enter 
https://telegram.me/dlangTelegram

We're only two people so far, but don't push it, these things 
take time. For me, it's way more convenient to use Telegram than 
any IRC.

Cheers!
