Hi Robert, That’s great. Let me know if you need a hand with anything. Feel free to ping me in #cython.
Also in the meantime I managed to get the attention of a freenode admin who changed the channel settings so the spam problem is mostly resolved for now. It would still be good to have the channel registered with the project and to set up admins.
