I'm not a Croquet developer, but I do know there is a need for
more communication. Come hang out on the irc channel #croquet at
freenode. We croquet fans from the squeak.org community created
it and have discussions there sometimes. The more people join,
the more useful it will be.

The squeak irc portal has info on how to access the irc network:

just substitute #squeak with #croquet and the instructions
still apply.
