Fw: Communication Bridges?

Tue Sep 12 04:36:00 BST 2006

Alot of people find it hard to connect to an IRC channel, specially when
using Gaim. I like to help on that field, so I made a simple app,
http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuLiveChatSupport
honestly, I really couldn't figure out how to put it in ubuntu, you know
I'll be really happy if someone just put it in their repository, even if
it's unofficial and manually putting it on their sources.list.

I think alot of people in the community want to help on ubuntu, they just
don't know how.
