The #sage-devel IRC channel is not currently registered in anyone's name on the freenode network (was it ever?), which means that nobody can obtain operator privileges in it unless everyone leaves, the channel thus gets purged, and then someone joins it to "found" it again.
Could some maintainer of this mailing list perhaps take the issue up with the freenode staff? As far as I am aware, they will often help you to reclaim an ownerless channel by registering it in your name if you can provide good reasons why you deserve to own it. I mention this because the channel topic currently reads "stable: 4.3.1 | dev: 4.3.2.alpha1", which is rather outdated, and to change the topic one needs operator privileges. At least one visitor to the channel has been confused by this outdated topic and was trying install 4.3.1, so I figured it might be a good idea to bring this up. -Keshav -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
