I have not used IRC before, but would love to join the chat session.

I just just downloaded a trial version of 'mIRC' software for Win32
from http://www.mirc.co.uk which seems to work ok. For the benefit of any
other IRC newbies like me on Win32, hre are some trivial how-to notes

<help>
1. Under 'options' menu select category=connect and then click 'Add'
2. Description = anynameyouwant, server = irc.openprojects.net,
port=6667[default, works ok], group&password = blank
3.This will return you to 'options' menu select category=connect. Enter your
name and email etc..Then select new server named anynameyouwant from the
pop-up menu, and click 'Connect to IRC Server' button
4. A window with scrolling list named "mIRC Channels Folder" should
appear.For the first time type "#zope" in the field titled "Enter name of
channel to join".. #zope will be added to the list.
5. Now select #zope from the scrolling list and click the 'Join' button
Voila..! You should now be in the zope chat window - other users will be
listed on right hand margin
