There are a few mentions but mentioning it on the contributing index would be fine.
$ grep -rI "#django-dev" * internals/contributing/new-contributors.txt: `#django-dev` IRC channel. intro/contributing.txt: to |django-developers| or drop by `#django-dev on irc.freenode.net`__ to

I was thinking about something simple, along the lines of:
Join the django-developers mailing list and share your ideas for how to improve Django. We’re always open to suggestions. You can also interact via the #django-dev IRC channel.
To avoid creating another topic just for the #django-dev IRC.

Hi Augusto,
Would you mind if I claim this ticket for myself and make the fix that you proposed?

Hi Kenneth.
Absolutely not. Go ahead and submit your patch.
That sounds really good to me.
I believe that most of the newcomers interested in contributing to Django doesn't even know that irc://irc.freenode.net/django-dev exists.
