#ix is an IRC channel for 
IX-related chat (netops, peering, maintenance notification, etc). Put your 
proper name (& possibly company) in your "RealName" IRC entry, 
and please append your AS number to your username, so people can find you if 
they need to contact a rep of your ASN - ESPECIALLY if you are new!
For connection onto the IRC network, please contact me, 
ivan_bev (email at bottom of page).
