Good riddance. Overall, the corporate world tries to play nice with community stuff they got their hands on by throwing money at it. But sometimes they don't seem to have anything better on their mind than to sink it. Latest experience was SourceForge turning into an adware distribution site temporarily. They resold the site before its reputation/value was completely destroyed. The current owners of Freenode don't appear to have such plans as to yet. Ok, end of rant. +1, good thinking. Anybody else opening a vicarious issue for carrying along the patch, or should I do the honors? -- David Kastrup
