+ <p>Boost users and developers spend time in various IRC
+ channels to generally work together. The attendance and traffic
+ of the channels varies greatly but there is usually someone
+ around to chat. And many times chat about just about any topic,
+ not just about the Boost C++ Libraries.</p>
+
+ <p>Even though the channels are not moderated in the strict
+ sense, for some there is the expectation that one should follow
+ the usual Boost discussion rules of civility. This is both as a
+ recognition that the Boost community is varied in age, and in
+ sensibilities. So please keep your language clean. And don't be
+ surprised if you find yourself reprimanded by the ops.</p>
+
+ <p>Most of the channels can be found in the <a class="external"
+ href="http://freenode.net/">freenode</a> network. But we might
+ stray into <a class="external" href=
+ "http://www.efnet.org/">efnet</a>.</p>
+
+ <h2>#boost</h2>
+
+ <p>This is the main channel, and as such sees a good deal of
+ traffic at times. Most times one can find about 80 "people"
+ (there's a few bots in there) and a good representation from
+ Boost developers. If you are looking for some quick help in
+ getting something in Boost working this is a good place to
+ go.</p>

+ <h2>##c++</h2>
+
+ <p>This is rather chatty but topical, hence the ## int he name,
+ C++ language discussion channel. Many of the same people who
+ hang out in the #boost channel, also hang out here. But be
+ warned, read about the <a class="external" href=
