[Mike Taylor]

The move to IRC will involve the steps I outlined earlier but that was an overview so I wanted to break down some of them into more detail.

server name

osaf related channels

         - other channels can be created as needed by me
nicknames

bots

logs

irc.freenode.net (Freenode maintains a number of servers and the specific server you connect to is determined by round-robin dns) the following have been registered by me: #chandler, #cosmo, #scooby, #osaf (what was #staff) because Freenode is *huge* there is a good chance the nickname you have been using may be taken once you find a nickname you want to use you will need to register it - I will outline the details of that later egg and soup will be shifted as soon as this proposal is approved and the move date is reached all logs will be maintained and the normal method of access will continue to work My plan to handle people who are slow to move is to modify soup to announce to any channel a message as soon as someone connects. Just some information to help flesh out the details - please let me know if anyone has any questions.
