New unofficial resource announcement - IRC channels
Hi all, As a user/developer who has lurked/participated on IRC since 2000 when my eyes were truly opened to Free/OSS, I have found discussion on IRC to be value to any project. This being the case, I have created two unofficial channels on freenode for SL users and developers to make use of. Freenode: https://freenode.net Channels: #sl-users Topic = Unofficial Scientific Linux user channel. Official website for Scientific Linux: http://http://www.scientificlinux.org Welcome message === [#sl-users] Welcome to the unofficial Scientific Linux users IRC channel. This channel is for discussing use of Scientific Linux and allows users to support each other. #sl-devel Topic = Unofficial Scientific Linux development channel. Official website for Scientific Linux: http://http://www.scientificlinux.org Welcome message === [#sl-devel] Welcome to the unofficial Scientific Linux development IRC channel. This channel is for discussing development of/with Scientific Linux. The channels are logged thanks to: https://botbot.me/ Links to logs can be access via their website directly or via the link supplied at the end of the channel topic. I am happy to add SL project developers as ops if they wish and as time goes by I would expect to add others who show they are responsible.

As an FYI - there is already one #slforum That's related to: http://scientificlinuxforum.org/ Its quiet enough as it is, I'm not sure we need more dilution ;) On 23/12/2014 3:42 AM, Phil Wyett wrote: Hi all, As a user/developer who has lurked/participated on IRC since 2000 when my eyes were truly opened to Free/OSS, I have found discussion on IRC to be value to any project.

I am not going to think of it as dilution, but something different that with additions bring more people to SL. After the holiday period I hope to add some elements that may make the channels more popular with users and developers alike. For example: Have tutorial sessions by users on a specific SL related package or activity. Spread the knowledge and allow users to help others and promote their areas of interest. Have debug sessions. Look at a package or activity that is causing one or more SL users problems. etc. Ideas for other session types are always welcome.
