[Gloucs] GLUG venue

[Macdonald-Wallace, Matthew J]

I'm unaware of the server addy for the IRC server, but I use it for a lot of
other chat todo with websites I host etc...

I prefer it to MSN/Yahoo/AOL, but as my friends insist on using these, CCMSN
is installed on my box along with Gaim.

For future reference, what is the url?

Cheers,

Matt

Thank you Paul. Encouraged by your success I just gave it a go and 
managed to get it to work. Just needed to add a real name and user name. 
If only the server had said so instead of saying I had insufficient user 
parameters. Anyhoo, connected, said "Hello" to myself and disconnected.

IRC doesn't seem to be all its cracked up to be.

Cancel the talk :)

So, echoing Guy's Q, does anyone use it?
