+# telega.el and the Emacs community on Telegram
+Gabriele Bozzola and Evgeny Zajcev
+
+[[!inline pages="internal(2021/info/telega-schedule)" raw="yes"]]
+
+Telegram is a cross-platform instant messaging system. The large number of
+features and the widespread adoption make it a good choice for both private
+conversations with friends and for large online communities. In this talk, I
+am going to present the Emacs community on Telegram and its initiatives. I
+am also going to discuss telega.el, the Emacs client for Telegram. telega.el
+is a high-quality package that perfectly integrates in Emacs. It supports
+the vast majority of the features supported by the official clients, while
+adding several unique ones. In the talk, I will present the package and
+highlight some of the most important features.
+
+# Discussion
+
+-   Q1: Do any of these main emacs telegram groups bridge to matrix?
+    -   A: [Speaker] We discussed adding a bridge to matrix for the
+        main channel @emacs_en. We never got around to doing it, but I
+        can bring this up again. 
+-   Q2: Could telega.el auto install TDLib like lsp-mode auto installs
+    servers?
+-   A: [Speaker] Possibly. The difference is that TDLib requires a
+    number of dependencies that might not be available.  Evgeny chose
+    another route to simplify setting up telega.el: the package can now
+    be installed with a Dockerfile that also ships with also the
+    optional dependencies. This ensures that everything works as
+    intended.
+- Does telega still require company for completion?
+- Telegram has become a real (and desired) option to WhatsApp, thanks to telega.el
