Awesome, I'll book Thursday for it, then. The channel is fine. If you don't
mind, I'll add the chat info to the GDNet news queue, too, and the
announcement should be out later today.

I don't know about the Source engine being available to non-millionaire
indies, what with its $300,000 to $750,000 USD tag. But if there's anything
on using Steam for distribution, that'd be great.

Someone should get in touch with Introversion for an interview for the SIG,
too. Uplink and Darwinia have both been pretty successful games, plus
they're using Steam for the latter.

> OK, sounds good.

I'll get cracking tonight, then. Should hopefully have a design by the end
of the weekend at least, if not content. More dynamic stuff can wait for
now, but I should contact the IGDA webmaster to see what's available beyond
simple PHP, so I can figure out about setting up automatic news and such.

Agreed.

When is your Austin conference planned for? My TIGC will be happening late
Aug/early Sep if it clears all its hurdles...
