Each IRC Client is a little different to configure. All of the ones we have recommended have very straight forward configuration process. If your client provides a list of available servers, look for the one called Freenode.
Make sure to put in a nick
to go by.
Upon connecting to the Freenode network, join us by typing /join #sailsjs

He also informs the room whenever someone pushes up a change to any of the repos in the Sails.js ecosystem.
