Data Networks 2020 Discord server

Dear Students,

Since remote collaboration can be challenging, we provide you with a free text and voice chat. You are now able to join the Data Networks 2020 Discord server: https://discord.gg/Y7UJUDD.

Discord allows you to stay completely anonymous or to set up an account and use it from all of your devices simultaneously. To join anonymously via the in-browser app, click on the above link and enter a temporary user name. If Discord asks you to claim your account, click outside of the box.

Before you can use the server, you have to read and accept (by reacting to the post) the server guidelines. As mentioned by the guidelines, we will monitor the Discord server on a best-effort basis, i.e., it is more a place for you to collaborate than it is another way of contacting us. Yet, we will post notifications (e.g., Q&A session starts in 15 min) and other course-related information and might answer questions from time to time.

Joining the Discord server is _not_ mandatory. We will only post information to the Discord server that is available via the news section or the course's forum—you will _not_ miss any information if you do not join the Discord server.
