Joining the IRC channel
If you are new to IRC, you will need to find an IRC client. The later versions of Netscape and Mozilla have IRC built in, and you can connect to a GeoTools meeting simply by using the URL: irc://irc.freenode.net/geotools.
The information you need to configure your IRC client are:
- Server - Pick one from Freenode Servers
- Channel - #geotools
- Port - 6667
You can jump on IRC at any point to meet the GeoTools team, or ask questions of other users.
