Ilug-Bom now has it's own IRC channel. We are called #ilug-bom and are located on irc.freenode.net - Home of many popular open source projects' channels.
To learn more about IRC go to http://www.irchelp.org. For the ignorant people, IRC stands for Internet Relay Chat. It's a medium which offers the opportunity of Real Time communication between a large number of entities - Basically, the biggest collection of chat rooms.
To connect to IRC you need a client like X-Chat, BitchX, KvIRC, mIRC(for Windows users) etc. To connect to freenode type /server irc.freenode.net Once you are connected, type /join #ilug-bom That should get you into the channel.
If you have a constant connection to the net, please come and stick around, as we would like to see this # grow.
Hope to see you all there.

Is there scope for an http tunnel or something? No IRC through the IITB firewalls :-(

Try transconnect.sf.net. When I used it last, I was able to do irc, gaim through squid.

Will take a look ... but what I really meant is, that irc.freenode.net should be able to talk through an http tunnel, right?

Right. I don't think http tunnel discriminates against certain irc servers ;)
