Hello all, If you've been on #zeromq on Freenode for the past few days, you'll have notice that it's been overrun by spambots. This is happening all over the internet, to many freenode and ofct channels, so not only us. [1]
To put a temporary stop to it, I've enabled registered mode so that only users that are registered and authenticated on Freenode can join the channel. Hopefully Freenode will put a stop globally to this wave of spam and then we can remove it again. You can register a user on the Freenode website [2], and most client support automated authentication. Apologies if this causes issues to anybody. -- Kind regards, Luca Boccassi [1] https://freenode.net/news/spambot-attack [2] https://freenode.net/kb/answer/registration
