Dear Keshav, 

Thank your for your request and willing to contribute to the GAP project.
We will think of the suitability of an IRC channel and will contact you 
regarding this idea later. The GAP project does not have an official IRC
channel, and the page http://www.gap-system.org/Contacts/contacts.html 
lists all currently used ways of communication for the user's feedback, 
support requests, possible cooperation and communication between users.
It also gives some advice on how to decide what is more appropriate for 
the GAP Forum and what - for GAP Support.  

Best wishes,
Alexander

If not, I suspect it couldn't hurt to set up one, to provide another avenue for users to ask questions (or generally for pseudo-realtime GAP-related discussion, which as far as I know the forum doesn't have a means of doing at the moment). Many open source projects have IRC channels on irc.freenode.net<http://irc.freenode.net>, which is one possibility. If nobody has done so I'd be happy to set one up and maintain it, though as a GAP beginner I don't think I'm necessarily the best person for the job :)
