 Some protocols (like Jabber) also support named groupchats. BitlBee now supports these too. You can use the <emphasis>join_chat</emphasis> command to join them. See <emphasis>help join_chat</emphasis> for more information.

+<para>
+Obviously the (numbered) channel names don't make a lot of sense. Problem is that groupchats usually don't have names at all in the IM-world, while IRC insists on a name. So BitlBee just generates something random, just don't pay attention to it. :-)

+Please also note that BitlBee doesn't support groupchats for all protocols yet. BitlBee will tell you so. Support for other protocols will hopefully come later.
