| == How We Use IRC ==
| |
| If you have questions about anything Diaspora-related, the best way to get an answer quickly is to visit us in IRC. An IRC "channel" is roughly equivalent to a chatroom, or a text-based group chat in Skype, or a Campfire room.
| |
|
| |
|
| It's fairly low-tech as group communication goes, but since we have contributors all over the world in different time zones and with different levels of internet access, it works well for us.

| == Channels ==
| |
| We have several IRC channels. Click the link to join the channel in a browser window. You can also download and use an IRC client such as [http://colloquy.info/ Colloquy] for OS X, [http://www.mirc.com/ mIRC] for Windows, [http://xchat.org/ XChat] or [http://konversation.kde.org/ Konversation] for Linux distros.

| We have two mailing lists, both Google groups. They tend to have a slightly different audience than the IRC channels, so if you can't get your question answered in IRC, you can try here.
