(Last I saw) Freenode wants full root access on the boxes, Something that ops more than likely won't want to do if its sitting on our networks.

One of the reason the ops (Tim S. especially) like our current IRC setup is because its turn on and forget about it for a few years, That would more than likely not be if the case if we started opening up for people to talk on it and etc, where as we currently have a fully functioning and "fine" system operating system (which no one has really given any reasons against really, apart from the group contacts thing, which i see as a non issue at current). _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
