Add information about chat in readme #12

Closed AltNico closed 5 years ago

In #11 we set up a chat which is synced across Matrix and Gitter and open to other networks through bridges. @ialokim suggested to add information about this chat in the readme, to which I agree.

The gitter chat is already mentioned, but we should add the Telegram and the matrix (#public-transport:schildbach.de) "entrypoints" too.

I'm having trouble to generate a shields.io badge for the Matrix room: I used public-transport as "room alias" and schildbach.de as FQDN/server, but it says "not found".

public-transport Matrix room

Surely, @schildbach's matrix server has a configuration as follows:

Some Matrix homeservers don't hold a server name matching where they live (e.g. if the homeserver example.com that created the room alias #mysuperroom:example.com lives at matrix.example.com).

As I don't know the FQDN address, it's producing the same "not found" for me.

Luckily, our room also has an alias over at matrix.org so the following does works:

The room id is #public-transport:schildbach.de. The matrix server is lives on is matrix.schildbach.de. The connection between the two is done via DNS as per matrix spec:

$ dig -t srv _matrix._tcp.schildbach.de
[...]
_matrix._tcp.schildbach.de. 3600 IN SRV 10 0 8448 matrix.schildbach.de.
