+<samp class="highlight">Q: How can I register my channel in SILC?</samp><br />
+A: There is no channel registration in SILC. When you join a non-existing
+channel, it is created and it will exist until the last person leaves it.
+When you join a new channel you became the founder (see also

+Q: I am founder of invite only channel, how can I join the channel after
+I have left it?</a>)
+and you can preserve your founder status while the channel exists. Cell or
+network wide founder status or persistent founder status (preserving even
+empty channels for limited time) is a debated TODO item and it may or may
+not happen. If it does, its effect could be similar to channel registration.
