You are accessing an entirely different #gimp.

The #gimp on freenode is not the same as the #gimp on irc.freenode.net,
they are as different as www.gimp.org and www.freenode.net, run by
different people, different physical computers, etc etc.

Only for freenode. You have to register separately with NickServ on the
GIMP network.

But the message about invite-only is not the same as Freenode requiring
that you are logged in (identified) to a registered username (nick).

For freenode's #gimp you have to be using a nick registered on
freenode, and identified to nickserv, e.g. with
   /nickserv id you-password-here
before you join.

On the GIMP network yes, also identify to NickServ in the same way,
using the password for gimpnet, but if #gimp is invite-only you can
either follow the instructions you were given to use /knock, or message
someone whose nick you know, or try #gimp-users and see if there's
anyone around, or try in a little while.

The channel is indeed invite-only on gimpnet right now.
