Hi

Why is this an issue exactly? I peeked at said IRC channel, and there were 15 users, including myself and a bot. I believe any and all time spent on this channel and who is or is not, should or should not be a channel owner, is completely wasted. To put it more bluntly: nobody uses IRC anymore, and nobody ever will again. (Idling for the sake of idling is not the same as participating.)

An XMPP MUC might be of more use, although even that would likely not attract many people.

Cheers
Nathan

Urgent: Rubén, can you _please_ accept to become the representing
channel owner so you can edit topics?


Otherwise I have to ask Giuseppe Scrivano <[email protected]> for
permission each time which I most likely will forget about like this
time. This is very inconvenient. I'm not fine to wait with this any more.
