IRC

Like most other Ubuntu teams, ubuntu-ie uses IRC as a form of communication. Most of the communication outside of the mailing list, as well as ubuntu-ie meetings take place in the ubuntu-ie IRC channel.

You can connect to the ubuntu-ie IRC channel using IRC clients such as Gaim Internet Messenger or XChat, by pointing your client to the Freenode network (irc.freenode.net:6667) and joining the #ubuntu-ie channel.

Alternativly if you are using a public computer or would prefer not to download a IRC client you can connect to #ubuntu-ie using Freenode's web IRC service located here

Channel Guidlines

While in the ubuntu-ie IRC channel (and in any Ubuntu channel) you are expected to abide by the Ubuntu Code of Conduct (CoC). Most of what is applicable to the IRC Channel can be summarised as follows (taken from ubuntu.com)

Be respectful. The Ubuntu community and its members treat one another with respect. Everyone can make a valuable contribution to Ubuntu. We may not always agree, but disagreement is no excuse for poor behaviour and poor manners. We might all experience some frustration now and then, but we cannot allow that frustration to turn into a personal attack. It's important to remember that a community where people feel uncomfortable or threatened is not a productive one. We expect members of the Ubuntu community to be respectful when dealing with other contributors as well as with people outside the Ubuntu project, and with users of Ubuntu.
