Found my own answer. Sorry about that. A no brainer, went to www.freenode.net

2.2
Just a quick question, I tried to connect to freenode.net (port 6667), but was unable. I used mirc. Is the port wrong?

jumping to 3.1 would much easier.
there really weren't that many fundamental API changes
from 2.2. to 3.1. some
header files changed, but nothing
too egregious... just make sure you are use
kapplication.h instead of kapp.h
and that sort of thing... but the basic
concepts (KConfig, XMLUI,
KAboutData, KApplication, KMainWindow, etc) all
remained. some KDE2 applications
required nothing more than a recompile for
KDE3. there is lots of KDE3 code to
look at for examples, and there is up-to-
date API documentation at
developer.kde.org.
also, if you have a full-time connection to the 'net,
you can jump on IRC
(freenode.net) and join one of the
KDE devel channels (e.g. #kde-devel) where
quite a few people hang out
discussion KDE3 development issues...
