About twice a year we try to advertise the #ada channel on the Freenode IRC network. Celebrating its eleventh birthday next month, the channel continues to be active and friendly. These days it averages about 60 users at a time, large enough to support lively and informative discussions but small enough so it's not a madhouse.

Topics range all over the map, from building the latest GNAT to writing an OS in Ada to daily Ada programming issues to how to use PolyOrb to use the Distributed Systems Annex. The stated topic is discussing Ada in the context of free and open-source software, but commercial users are equally welcome.

So fire up your favorite IRC client and come join us! The network is homed at irc.freenode.net, but has servers all over the world. Visit www.freenode.net on the web for details. Hope to see you soon!

It would help if you could post the name of the channel as well. On the
first look i was not able to locate the channel in the list of primary
groups.

I think that might be #ada (as in the OP's first line).
