22		  <p>The Buildroot IRC channel is <a href="irc://irc.oftc.net/#buildroot">
23		      #buildroot</a>, hosted on OFTC. If you do not have an IRC client, you can
24		    use the <a href="https://www.oftc.net/WebChat/">OFTC web interface</a>.
25		    When asking for help on IRC, share relevant logs or pieces of code using a code
26		    sharing website.</p>
27
28		  <p>Note that due to excessive spamming on IRC, the channel can only be
29		    joined if you are a registered user with
30		    <a href="https://www.oftc.net/Services/">OFTC NickServ</a>
31		    service. Follow the instructions to register as a user with a password,
32		    and then join the <code>#buildroot</code> channel.</p>
