You will find that some of the curl core team developers frequent this chat. <h2> How to join </h2> <p> Libera.Chat offers a <a href="https://libera.chat/guides/clients">comprehensive guide</a> regarding various ways on joining the network. <h2> How to speak </h2> <p> You will notice that you must "register" your nick name first on the network to be allowed to talk in the channel. This is an unfortunate anti-spam and anti-abuse measurement. <p> The good part is that <a href="https://libera.chat/guides/registration">it is easy to register</a>. <h2> What if nobody responds </h2> <p> There is no guarantee anyone wants to respond or that anyone who reads right now even knows the answer to your question. Consider maybe post your questions or thoughts on a <a href="/mail/">suitable mailing list?</a> <h2> Screenshot </h2> <p> A screenshot example of a discussion in the #curl channel from early April 2021. Seen here in action is the Linux IRC client <a href="https://hexchat.github.io/">hexchat</a>. The time stamps on the left are shown using the local time zone of Daniel ('bagder') Stenberg. <p> <img src="../pix/irc-screenshot.png" width=100%> </div> </div> </body> </html>
