    Moving irc.debian.org

    We had quite a lot of discussion on the debian-project mailing list about changing the irc.debian.org CNAME to point at irc.oftc.net instead of irc.freenode.net. My early tally of public opinions went something like:

    • 13 people expressed support for moving to oftc
    • 3 people did not want to move
    • 22 people expressed no strong preference either way
    • 1 person thought we should use Jabber instead of IRC

    I've had numerous other suggestions privately, via mail and (of course) IRC, in roughly similar proportions. On the strength of this support, we have decided to make the suggested move. The necesssary DNS changes will go ahead on the 4th of June.
