How do I follow on IRC?

Do I need to register or something? I want to follow the progress of the (nightly builds)Ardour 4 Windows edition, and possibly help in some way. I’m not a dev, but I’m a Windows 7 64bit user.

Easiest way is to use Menu > Help > Chat

which will lead you to http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=ardour-windows

There are also various desktop-client programs to access IRC chat (you’ll want to join freenode, #ardour-windows)

Thanks.
