(08/12 13:01:22)  Korov'ev: 1. Please *keep chatter to a minimum* while speakers are talking. The occasional comment or emote is fine, but be respectful and let the speaker finish.

(08/12 13:01:34)  Korov'ev: 2. If you have a question for a speaker, please don't ask it directly: PM it to me. Be sure a "?" is somewhere in it to properly log the question in the queue.
(08/12 13:01:44)  Korov'ev: 3. Speakers, please indicate when you are done speaking and ready for questions, and when you're ready for the next question.
(08/12 13:01:57)  Korov'ev: 4. If a question requires a long explanation, we may have to skip it to keep things moving. In that case, you can always PM any speaker once they've left the stage.
(08/12 13:02:11)  Korov'ev: 5. A summary and a chatlog of the Meeting will be published in the next few days on the MO:ULa forums.

(08/12 13:13:28)  Korov'ev: it's one of our resident robots :)
(08/12 13:14:00)  ghaelen: oh!  I'll do my best...  lol  Mir-O-Bot helps us get to places we can't get to all together (and other things).  So we'll be able to get to the Spacey Sphere by sending Mir-O-Bot a text command like /help via IM
(08/12 13:14:16)  ghaelen: I didn't say that correctly, I dont' think, but I do know /help works!
(08/12 13:14:25)  ghaelen: I don't know what the actual command will be.
(08/12 13:14:37)  Janeerah: it will  more be to have the bot there and to link to him
(08/12 13:14:41)  ghaelen: You do need to add Mir-O-Bot as a buddy...  anyone add anything to this?
(08/12 13:14:47)  Korov'ev: it should be /link or /meet
(08/12 13:14:47)  ghaelen: oh, there you go
(08/12 13:14:51)  ghaelen: what Jan said :)
(08/12 13:15:01)  Lissie: cool, thanks!

(08/12 13:19:50)  shokhootahn Rehn: First, the language classes...

(08/12 13:26:33)  mTX17: :D
(08/12 13:26:55)  Korov'ev: And now, some tidbits from the Mysterium Cyan Q&A!
(08/12 13:27:08)  Korov'ev: They're working on a new project, a new IP! They're planning to reveal almost nothing about it until it ships ;)
(08/12 13:27:10) [applause]
(08/12 13:27:26) Jessica777 worries
(08/12 13:27:30)  Korov'ev: Re: Obduction, Kaptar had some other areas in it that were going to be visually stunning with a cool puzzle associated with it;
(08/12 13:27:31)  ChrisKB: oooh aaah
(08/12 13:27:31) [applause]
(08/12 13:27:38)  Korov'ev: it will be used for something in the future. The Villein control panels had a bigger ending puzzle.
(08/12 13:27:46)  Korov'ev: They're considering crowdfunding smaller projects.
(08/12 13:27:48)  Dulcamara: coooooooool
(08/12 13:28:11)  Korov'ev: Not sure if the new IP will be crowdfunded, though
(08/12 13:28:22)  Korov'ev: probably yes
(08/12 13:28:30)  Korov'ev: Uru is still on their minds, but they're busy with a big list of projects and none is related to the D'niverse. Nor is an Obduction sequel.
(08/12 13:28:48)  Korov'ev: There were more Obduction lore answers, but they're perhaps a bit spoilery for this meeting ;)
(08/12 13:29:04)  Korov'ev: No plans for a Linux version of Obduction; if there were, they would be for a specific distro.
(08/12 13:29:42)  Korov'ev: IP stands for Intellectual Property
(08/12 13:29:56)  Korov'ev: At some point they'll consider making a Myst VR game! Maybe a reboot, but currently there is no real plan.
(08/12 13:30:18)  Korov'ev: For some projects, they might focus on VR first, then on PC and PS4 versions.
(08/12 13:30:27)  Korov'ev: They're still trying to get the rights back for Myst III and IV, but it's still a long road.
(08/12 13:30:56)  Korov'ev: Lastly, new D'ni words! Well, two are confirmations...
(08/12 13:31:06)  Korov'ev: If you're curious: dhaynoy "setback", yeepay "eyeglasses", rehmehsfeht "diligent"
(08/12 13:31:18) [applause]
(08/12 13:31:27)  Korov'ev: Well, time to wrap up this meeting, with the summary of the upcoming events (times in KI time)
