I agree. IRC will help us to be more productive.

Hmm... bummer... I was hoping that someone would have some knowledge
about setting up a channel on freenode.net. I'm not having a lot of
luck figuring out how they do it. The documentation they have tells how
you should operate your channel, but it doesn't tell you if the channels
have to registered/reserved and doesn't tell you how to go about doing
that if that is the case.
I don't want to pester the freedesktop.org folks asking them too many
questions about IRC...
