Subject: Leaving Freenode behind
Date: Mon, 21 Jun 2021 22:24:48 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CADwFkmmMkXrtD_FejpwWf9nEUqh+A7H9f_HSF2z8yGd7rXw7Hw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

As you may have heard, the Freenode IRC network has been taken over by
a hostile corporate entity.[1][2]  The #emacs community has already
moved.[3]

I suggest we stop promoting it in Emacs, and instead promote the
community run Libera Chat.[4]  This would mean removing most
references and links to Freenode in our sources and documentation.

Are there any objections to this plan?  If not, I will be happy to go
ahead and make the necessary changes.
