GNOME IRC Services
This wiki page contains a little how-to for registering your nickname and requesting ACLs on GNOME channels at GIMPNET. It also has a list of all the people involved in the whole process, with their name and a list of channels they have access to as Operators.
FAQ
1. How can I register my nickname?
Send a message to Services with the following content: register yournickname yourpassword
2. What's the procedure for having an ACL setup for a specific channel?
- Send an e-mail to av@gnome.org with the following details: - Your nickname
- The channel/s you need OP status on
- Your hostname specifying if you are behind a static or dynamic IP
- Why you are requesting OP status on a specific channel (i.e are you a module maintainer requesting ACLs for your #module channel? do you lead or administrare any GNOME Team?)
 
- Wait for the ACLs to be created.
- After the ACLs have been created, you will be able to authenticate to the bot in the following ways: - With identifying to the bot with the following command (do a /query Services first) 'identify yournickname yourpassword' in the case you didn't specify an hostname on your previous mail. Make sure to run the command before joining a channel. * 
- Without identifying to the bot at all since the whole identification is done through your hostname previously registered for your nickname.
 
3. Can I change my password afterwards?
Sure, the command you should use is:
user set password <user> <old password> <new password>.
4. How can I update my hostmask?
The command you should use is:
user hostmask add <user> [hostmask] [password]
* You can do this by using the Connect command option as show below here:
