    1919Once you are connected to the BitlBee server, you are automatically joined
    20 to #bitlbee on that server. This channel acts like the 'buddy list' you have

     30You might be slightly confused by the &amp; in the channel name. This is,
     31however, completely allowed by the IRC standards. Just try it on a regular
     32IRC server, it should work. The difference between the standard #channels
     33and &amp;channels is that the #channels are distributed over all the servers
     34on the IRC network, while &amp;channels are local to one server. Because
     35the BitlBee control channel is local to one server (and in fact, to one person),
     36this name seems more suitable. Also, with this name, it's harder to confuse
     37the control channel with the #bitlbee channel on OFTC.
