About Internet Relay Chat (IRC) related to LyX.

Questions, answers, and debate in a friendly atmosphere takes place on IRC at the #lyx channel on the OFTC network. In order to get there, you need a IRC client such as the excellent text based client irssi (or mIRC for windows). Your browser might also have a chat client built in (e.g. the browser Opera has this).

Here are some related links:

• OFTC — an IRC server with e.g. the channel #lyx
• irssi — an IRC client
• mIRC — an IRC client for Microsoft Windows
• Comparision of IRC clients in wikipedia

Finally it is just a matter of connecting to the server using your IRC client. Here's how you can do this using irssi:

	$ irssi irc.debian.org irc.debian.org

When the connection is established, you can join the channel using this command (which assumes you are using irssi):

	/join #lyx

Unfortunately this channel is very quiet now and your questions will be more probably answered in the mailing list.
