IRC stands for Internet Relay Chat. It is a real-time multi-user messaging system. You can get help and advice on the GNOME IRC server from other GNOME users and developers.

To connect to the GNOME IRC server, use empathy or xchat, or use a web interface like mibbit.

To create an IRC account in empathy, see the Empathy documentation.

GNOMEs IRC-server er irc.gnome.org. Du kan også se det omtalt som GIMP-netværket ("GIMP network"). Hvis din computer er korrekt konfigureret, kan du klikke på linket for at åbne gnome-kanalen.

While IRC is a real-time discussion medium, people tend to not reply immediately, so be patient.
