+## Notes and feedback

+- I am totally into emacs buddy!!
+- noticed the program name in Andrea's Emacs window title? ;-)
+  - "This Text Editor is just Too Cool :)" in the fram title
+- The "Buddy System" has already helped me with Emacs and Gnus. Thank you Andrea!
+  - oh, you are welcome danisanti :D Hope you keep sending encrypted mails: thanks for the GPG exercise :)
+- This buddy system is a great idea, by the way. I could see how this might really benefit people trying to learn more or spread their skills
+- I think the usergroups page on the EmacsWiki is fairly well maintained.. https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/Usergroups

+## Questions

 -   Q: OFF TOPIC and not a question but a remark: hotmail.com is
     constantly blocking more and more smaller email servers (for valid
     but also dubious reasons) and many administrators are frustrated

                 AFAIR IMAP is only for payed plans and for for the free
                 plan.
         -   interesting, thanks!

+- Hi Andrea-- great talk. I hope your idea can scale. Are you looking at other models such as mentorship networks etc. What are your thoughts on real-time collaboration? Also, should this buddy network be a slack or discord channel? Would that help?
+  - I will just scale it up if necessary pulling more people as facilitators in case
+- Hi, just missed the talk, but as a beginner who just enjoys tinkering with emacs, I herewith warn you that I might reach out to you :-)
+- Q: would you consider creating a IRC channel for your buddy initiative?
+  - A: I didn't think about it: how would that be? I was thinking email/calls was more personal ;)
+  - a permanent IRC is great for me
+  - email and calls are good too
+  - for IRC there already is #emacs
+    - #emacs is a pretty big channel.  I can see where having a dedicated channel would make sense.
+  - something like jitsi might be good if you want that. I think you can protect them w/ code to keep weirdos out?
+  - email is more personal and it doesn't need to be connected all the time to get an answer
+  - yeah, async vs. sync communication styles.
+  - FWIW, to create a channel simply /join #the-channel
+- quiliro: I want to be a mentor and also would like to be mentored
+  - A: just drop me an email and we can get on from there
+  - dto: hey `none can you pm me your email? i could do some mentoring sessions this year for sure
