== IRC client practice: joining the <tt>#bostonpythonpycon-practice</tt> channel ==
 
During this workshop we'll get practice using IRC and help each other as we contribute to project in the <tt>#bostonpythonpycon-practice</tt> channel on the <tt>Freenode</tt> network.
 
Here are the connection details for joining the Freenode network and the <tt>#bostonpythonpycon-practice</tt> IRC channel:
 
<pre>
IRC server name: irc.freenode.net
channel name: #bostonpythonpycon-practice
</pre>
 
Given that information, and reviewing the XChat overview above, use XChat to connect to Freenode and join the <tt>#bostonpythonpycon-practice</tt> channel. Pick any nickname you like. :) Once you have joined the channel, say hello!
 
== Success! ==
