Hi all, The Freenode IRC network is currently undergoing a spam attack that is affecting the #cython channel there.
People definitely do use #cython to ask questions. I and some others try and help them out. It would be a shame to have that community, such as it is, get destroyed by the spam attack. Freenode has a way for a project to take control of the IRC channel associated with their name by mailing proje...@freenode.net and working with an admin to prove who you say you are. For matplotlib they asked Tom Caswell to push a branch with a randomly chosen name to github. If someone associated with the project is willing to do something like that, I would be very happy to volunteer to admin the channel and set the channel settings to mitigate the spam attack. I'm currently doing a similar process to get admin powers for #ipython and #matplotlib and already have admin powers in #scipy and #numpy. Thanks for your help, -Nathan
