Currently you do not require a registered nickname with Libera.chat to join the Org channel. This may be subject to change if spam becomes an issue.

IRC is a highly asynchronous form of chat. If the channel is not busy, don't be discouraged. Users come and go and watch the history.

When you join the channel, there is no need to ask whether you can ask a question. Please ask directly what you would like to discuss, and wait for a reply. You may wait quite some time so don't ask and quit five minutes later.

Be polite and respect other users. Rude behavior and spam are not tolerated.
