  <title>Start a conversation</title>

  <steps>
    <item>
      <p>
        To start a private conversation with one of the IRC contacts that
         are in a room, after you joined a room, from the IRC room contact list perform
         one of the following:
      </p>
      <list>
        <item>
          <p>
            Double-click the name of contact you want to have a conversation with.
          </p>
        </item>
        <item>
          <p>
            Right-click on the name of the contact you want to have a conversation with,
             and select <gui>Chat</gui>.
          </p>
        </item>
      </list>
    </item>
  </steps>

  <list>
    <item>
      <p>
        The IRC room contact list is not the same as <app>Empathy</app> <gui>Contact List</gui>,
         and is relative only to the IRC room you joined. Different rooms can have different
         contacts listed.
      </p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>
        The IRC room contact list is usually on the right side of the IRC room window. If you
         do not see it, choose
         <guiseq><gui>Conversation</gui><gui>Show Contact List</gui></guiseq>.
      </p>
    </item>
  </list>
