Internet Relay Chat is a worldwide text chat service with many thousands of users among various irc 'networks.

The Freenode IRC network has a #haskell channel, as of November 2005, we average about one hundred eighty people, and we have some excellent discussions. As of 2006-01 our high water mark is 206 unique clients (though that's including at least three bots, including Lambdabot).

Currently we have about half newbies learning from the experienced half, but any Haskell related conversation is welcome.

The IRC channel can be an excellent place to learn more about Haskell, and to just keep in the loop on new things in the Haskell world. Many new developments in the Haskell world first appear on the irc channel.

History

The #haskell channel was founded in the early 21st century. More info on this someone?

Getting there

If you point your irc client to irc.freenode.net and then join the #haskell channel, you'll be there.

  • #haskell.se - Swedish speakers
  • #gentoo-haskell - Gentoo/Linux specific
  • #haskell-overflow - Overflow conversations
  • #haskell-blah - Haskell people talking about anything except Haskell itself
