============
Welcome to Continuwuity 0.5.8 (046a635)!

In order to use your new homeserver, you need to create its first user account.
Open your Matrix client of choice and register an account on matrix.cogip.be using the registration token d9I2yNioPTUkeLTC . Pick your own username and password!
Nobody else will be able to register until you create an account using the token above.
Find a list of Matrix clients here: https://matrix.org/ecosystem/clients/

If you're running the server interactively, you may also create the first user through the admin console using the `users create-user` command. Press Ctrl-C to open the console.
If you need assistance setting up your homeserver, make a Matrix account on another homeserver and join our chatroom: https://matrix.to/#/#continuwuity:continuwuity.org
============

As mentioned above, create the first user in a Matrix client of your choice, and use the token shown in this log. This user will be the default admin.

Thereafter, any new user will be able to register using the token specified by the registration_token variable in the configuration file.
