<h1>FSFE is migrating its IRC presence to Libera Chat</h1>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In response to the recent mass resignation of volunteer staff from
|
|
Freenode, an Internet Relay Chat (IRC) network for Free Software
|
|
communities, the FSFE is migrating its IRC presence to Libera Chat,
|
|
a new IRC network with a similar focus founded by former Freenode staff.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The FSFE has been present on Freenode for more than fifteen years, and
|
|
throughout our tenure we have experienced only dedication, care, and
|
|
professionalism from the network's volunteer staff. When they feel
|
|
forced to resign and launch
|
|
<a href="https://libera.chat">a new network</a>, we follow to continue
|
|
experiencing the same level of care and dedication.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
All existing users of the #fsfe channel on Freenode are invited to
|
|
join us in
|
|
<a href="ircs://irc.libera.chat:6697/#fsfe">#fsfe on Libera Chat</a>.
|
|
Chatting will be disabled in #fsfe on Freenode and its presence will
|
|
be maintained solely to point users to #fsfe on Libera Chat. Users with
|
|
FSFE cloaks on Freenode should
|
|
<a href="mailto:contact@fsfe.org">e-mail us</a> from their FSFE e-mail
|
|
address with their Libera Chat account name to have an FSFE cloak
|
|
assigned on Libera Chat.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
We would like to thank Freenode for serving our needs well for more
|
|
than fifteen years and we hope our tenure with Libera Chat will outlast
|
|
those fifteen years.
