Welcome to the new Linux Foundation Forum!
Linux.com IRC
in Small Talk
Is there an IRC server/channel for Linux.com. I thought there was at one time, but I seem to have misplaced the info.

EDIT: OK. I'm in. It's working.
Just pick a chat client (I use Xchat) and set up your server and channel info (see Matt's post above). That's it. Easy-peasy!
The irc server is used on demand to help individuals with time sensitive information. Generally there is no one in there unless we prompt a discussion to be moved into the irc channel.
Time for a freenode channel?

Between Fedora and siduction and some of my old tech friends I have 10 IRC channels being logged 24/7 on a dedicated computer. There really is no need to have a dedicated channel unless you are offering 24/7 support. Just logging on to either oftc or freenode, you can create a temporary channel, and use it for whatever hand holding you need to do.
Actually, if your not using an IRC channel for 24/7 support, using Google Talk or Google Hangout is probably a better way to help someone out, as it's more personal and easier to use.
OK, I've spent my 2 cents. (It only cost 2 cents to get into this old thread, heh)
I'll probably be there
Regards
See you there

Marc and I are staying logged in on the freenode channel. Is that where you will be or should we migrate to the linuxfoundation server?
