IRC Chat Room for UK Wazers

Hi all. Just to let you know we now have a Waze UK specific IRC channel.

If you are savvy with the old IRC, you’ll find it on irc.freenode.net, channel ##WazeUK. If you are too young to know what that means and/or a ludite, you can reach it by following this link: http://bit.ly/WazeUKChat

Feel free to pop in and say hi. We’ll be using it to hold semi-regular discussions on the status of the UK map, and any projects that are going on. It will also be used to provide live help with editing should you need it. There’s usually at least one country manager in, so if you need a road unlocking try giving us a poke…

[i]For the international #Waze channel, see this thread: http://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=6503[/i]

Thanks for posting this mate but you’re still not getting ops :wink:

This channel is for UK specific editing of course, so yeah, if you need any help that the wiki or FAQ aren’t able to help you with, or you need clarification on anything, or just fancy a coffee and a chat and see what goes on on the MegaEditor side of things, pop in. All welcome! :slight_smile:

For anyone who’s using the webchat for freenode, here’s a handy script that enables desktop notifications in Chrome.

Sweet :slight_smile:

Make sure you join ##wazeuk and no #wazeuk. :wink:

Wow IRC, that’s blast from the past. I didn’t realise people still used it.

It’s easier to collaborate and get answers I find.

What are you guys using for an IRC client? Does mIRC still exist? Or are you just using the webchat?

I’m just using webchat because every time I try to use a client I can’t get in!

XChat-gnome is working fine for me. I have next to no knowledge of IRC.

Xchat2 or Ychat is pretty good. Mirc is payware.

Wow…can’t believe mIRC went payware. I was using it 15 years ago. I know it had gotten really elaborate and had built in abilities to work almost like a bot, but I can’t imagine paying for an IRC client.

I use the Chatzilla plugin for Firefox on my laptop (running Fedora 17 Linux) and AndChat on my phone (Samsung Galaxy Note).
