need any account.
Just log into GimpNet server and join the channel '#gtk+'.
You will find many projects out there have an associated irc channel
on GimpNet, Freenode or another server.

Thanks for your quick reply. I will try it once I get home from work. How do you know with whom you are talking to without having an a/c? For example, if you are online in #gtk+ how will I know that I am talking to you? I think I have to create an a/c with GimpNet server and that will be used when u join the #gtk+ channel. Is that right?
