[Soc-coordination] week 12

[Daniel Pocock]

Juliana, maybe you can run another blog about this progress, include a
screenshot of the new chat functionality with a couple of active tabs
and ask people to come on IRC to discuss testing.

debrtc.org is a test domain I registered - the official site (where the
final version of this will be published) is rtc.debian.org - you may
want to mention that to avoid confusion.
