I've generally stayed quiet on this topic, but I like opn. The asking for
donations has never bothered me at all. I tend to agree with Rob on things
also thouggh. I'd hate to see debian move, but I know I can't stop it
either.

Debian has some funds from the time of the dot-com boom. But basically don't

I'm not sure we get cross-fertilization from being on OPN. It is
convenient to have lots of free software related channels on a single

OFTC is a SPI supported project now, just like Debian, so you could
argue it fullfills that desire already. For the SPI resolution see

Hi all,
I just wanted to comment on the thread.
The Debian project has been with OPN since before 1998. You've grown, we've
grown. Maintaining a two hundred client network wasn't that difficult. But
the network has gotten quite a bit larger.
It's not all Debian, by any means. There are quite

I would like to see irc.debian.org moving to a IRC network without

Hi,
Debian doesn't run its own IRC service. Instead, irc.debian.org points to an
external network, called Open Projects Network (OPN). Well, now it's called
"freenode", but that's besides the point. Debian users are encouraged to
join the #debian channel on irc.debian.org when they want to communi
