I'd counter that OFTC is a better network and is free of lilo's method of running a network, which seems to be alienating anyone who is compitent and then trying to bring in people who are not in order to prove that he is the only one who can be trusted to run things. His need for absolute control is somewhat reminiscent of other tales we have all heard or experienced, and the man lost all respect in my mind (which at one point was quite a lot actually) when he started begging for donations to help pay his bills so he could provide for his family on a part time job and spend the rest of his time basically sitting on his ass in front of an irc window all day. irc.oftc.net is run by many of the people who were responsible for LISC and then OpenProjects. (OpenProjects became Freenode at some point when lilo decided that his goal was to transcend irc and throw RFC 1459 totally out the window in an incompatible manner.. Most irc clients happen to work with it still just like most web browsers handle broken HTML..) irc.oftc.net is a very small net, but it has been growing somewhat slowly for a couple of years now. I've known the people running it today as long as I have known lilo - they're good people and they know what they're doing. ___ EuG-LUG mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.efn.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/eug-lug
Re: [eug-lug]IRC
At one point I belive #euglug was setup, but I dont think anybody really used it... There is always #linux, #distro of choice, and #application of choice I sometime yack in #linux and #slackware, but Im not always available (even if Im logged in) I would ofcourse suggest using irc.freenode.net for an IRC service, there are many #linux's out there...
