Chat and Help

If you want to try out IRC then click here and pick a username when you're asked (it's not remembered or important for now) and type in one or more of the channels in the list above. This will give you a web-based chat window using the Freenode webchat service.

Say hello and mention that you followed the link on the wiki and ask for help or just talk to us :)

Then, if you like, you can search for an irc client for your machine and dive in.

Meetings

There are regular IRC meetings of the Maemo community and representatives of Nokia on a variety of subjects. These meetings will be held in #maemo-meeting, and usually be announced on either the mailing lists or maemo.org.

Logs of these meetings are available here.
