Hello everyone,
We have successfully set up a bridge between Matrix and #fedora-india IRC channel so that users from both sides can interact with each other.
The bridge between IRC and our Telegram channel was already been setup by Justin Flory. Huge thanks to him for bringing our communities together. Also huge thanks to Tom Callaway for helping us in his busy schedule.
And finally, huge thanks to Akarshan Biswas for initialising the bridge.
## What is Matrix?
Matrix is a new open network for secure, decentralized communication. It has it's own protocol which is completely open source. It supports bridging with multiple networks such as IRC, discord or Telegram. It behaves just like IRC and supports bots too.
Common clients are Fractal(Gnome app), nheko(Qt,KDE), Riot (desktop and phones), etc..
## How do you join?
From your client of choice, just join #fedora-india:matrix.org room.
We hope to see all of your participation there.
(**Note**: This email is a copy of the previous email, with minor modifications, sent by Akarshan which probably got stuck in the moderation list.)
Cheers!

Thanks also goes to the folks who brought the energy to make this happen. Looking forward to more activity in the unified Fedora India community. :)
