For all of the IRCers out there, Tobias Schlitt has some information about a new channel over on the EUIRC network that's been started around their local user group.

I know, there are tons of PHP IRC channels out there, but we still opened a new one (a few weeks ago), which first was a meeting place for our local (Dortmund) usergroup: #phpug on the EUIRC network. By now more and more people from other usergroups (mostly from Germany) and it starts getting a quite interessting place (ok, don't imaging something like #php.de on IRCNet, but we regularly have 10 to 15 people).

So, especially if you're in the Dortmund area, check out their channel. As another resource out there, there's the channel that I'm mainly in, ##php over on the irc.freenode.org network...
