So to be more specific it was more then just an IRC server for us. It was a west coast/north america node for the OZ IRC network as I understand it. But I just finished moving and I'm pretty tired. So I could be wrong.

Hey

Apologies for the IRC being down. This is something that DK has been working on. He's busy with work and I'm moving this weekend.

There is nothing inherently wrong with freenode.

The IRC server we use interacts with other nodes of a common IRC network. I believe its called OZ. If you ever looked there were several channels besides #linuxusers. The main reason as far as i know of using it was SSL connectivity as well as trusting it in gereral.

As far as having a #srcle group on freenode I don't have an opinion but FYI the #linuxusers channel will be back up soon.

Perhaps some dialog is in order about simply creating a channel on the Freenode network. This would relieve the burden of keeping a server going. I looked around but did not notice an official channel yet for the group. There's also a registration process for official groups that can be used to
identify us which I think would be a great idea for us.

Also, a channel name should be determined. I kind of like #socallinux but
what is every one else's thoughts on the matter?

I think that'd be a good idea. I'm always on FreeNode, and except for the occasional DCC attack on the high traffic channels, it's a pretty stable and
functional network.
