add chandesc field to profiles to provide some arbitrary text in the directory - such as to inform people what this channel is about before they connect. This will work best with a "channel detail" popup in the directory to provide more info than is available in the micro-profiles (when hovered, or clicked or something). And of course, the first thing is to enable this data to be stored in the directory.
