The ##hplusroadmap IRC channel on irc.freenode.net is the longest-lived Internet Relay Chat channel for do-it-yourself biohacking and practical transhumanism. There are public logs since 2008.
Users unfamiliar with IRC might find it helpful to connect through the Freenode webchat client: http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=%23%23hplusroadmap
Users who plan to contribute often are encouraged to seek out better IRC clients. The channel inhabitants seem to like irssi, ChatZilla for Firefox, Textual for OS X, Pidgin, XChat, and a variety of bouncers and remote shells.
