18Why IRC?
19--------
20
21IRC is a primary medium where Open Source GIS hackers congregate, collaborate,
22and hack. It makes it easy to communicate things like compilation issues,
23where immediate, iterative feedback allows folks to make a lot of progress.
24Something that might take days of heavily-quoted emails through a mailinglist
25might only take fifteen minutes on IRC.
26
27IRC is a great way to coordinate on-line meetings. The ZOO PSC conducts their
28monthly meetings through IRC.

30How do I join?
31--------------
32
33- `Chatzilla <http://chatzilla.hacksrus.com/>`__ is
34  probably the easiest way to get going. Chatzilla works with Mozilla or
35  Firefox, and once you have it installed, you can log on to the channel by
36  pointing your browser at::
37
38    irc://irc.freenode.net/#zoo-project
39
40- There are many other IRC clients available. `This page
41  <http://tikiwiki.org/ConnectingToIrc>`__ provides a good listing for many
42  different platforms.
43 
44- You can also connect to IRC directly in your Web browser without a client:
45
46  - goto http://webchat.freenode.net/
47  - enter a nickname (usually your first initial plus your last name)
48  - in "Channels" enter: zoo-project
49  - Connect!
