the first few reasons off the top of my head: 1. brand association 2. pre-existing community 3. control over the infrastructure all I've seen in this thread is a call to improve Gimpnet, not to migrate wholesale; honestly, I'd hate for us to end up inside an anonymous network like freenode and dilute our brand - and I've yet to see a rationale for the benefits (perceived or otherwise) that moving to freenode would give us; I don't see people waiting in the wings (or, worse, refusing) to join the GNOME project because of the IRC server/network that we use. ciao, Emmanuele. -- W: http://www.emmanuelebassi.name B: http://blogs.gnome.org/ebassi/ _______________________________________________ foundation-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
