Before, during, and after the conference, you are encouraged to participate in the meta-conference on IRC. Freenode is the official IRC network of ApacheCon. ApacheCon attendees tend to congregate on #apachecon
on irc.freenode.net
.
There will also be per-track IRC channels, called #actrack1
, #actrack2
, #actrack3
, and #actrack4
.
Note that general technical questions about the Apache webserver are usually held on #apache
. Many individual ASF projects also have project-specific channels where they discuss technical or community issues about their projects.
