-The Pressrelease:
+The Press release:
+<p>
+New Open Source project called Secure Internet Live Conferencing (SILC)
+has been started. Initial development version of the software is
+available for testing.
+<p>
+SILC (Secure Internet Live Conferencing) is a protocol which provides
+secure conferencing services in the Internet over insecure channel.
+SILC is IRC like software although internally they are very different.
+Biggest similiarity between SILC and IRC is that they both provide
+conferencing services and that SILC has almost same commands as IRC.
+Other
+than that they are nothing alike. Biggest differences are that SILC is
+secure what IRC is not in any way. The network model is also entirely
+different compared to IRC.
+<p>
+SILC is an open source (or freeware) project and it has been released
+under the GNU General Public Licence. The SILC is free to use and
+everyone
+is free to distribute and change the SILC under the terms of the GNU GPL.
+While there is no guarantee for the product SILC has been tried make
+as secure as possible. Developers are needed and everyone is free to
+contribute their time, skills and ideas for the project.
