Hi Chip! please elaborate, and do not 'boycott' without giving some rationale or explaining the how and why ... I don't see a reason for changing the irc network, so please give me some hints ... or ask the community, if the majority is for a change, we'll probably move _again_ ... if you just wan't a broader audience, why not 'reactivate' the bridge we had between oftc and freenode?
