Greetings,

Right now irc.lopsa.org points at chat.freenode.net.

You may have heard that freenode has had a hostile takeover. We're
looking at where we want to move #lopsa and #lopsa-lounge to. I just
wanted to see if anyone on this list has access to update irc.lopsa.org
CNAME once we decide where we want to move to.

thanks,
nomad

I have no access to help with things, but I haven't been a board member for a long time, so you guys may want to update the groups.

With that said - I hope you're all well. A true blast from the past to see LOPSA in my inbox... That was a fun part of this crazy journey of mine called life!

I might still be on the list somewhere but I tried to get off the list when I left the tech team and board a long time ago.

Thanks Matthew,

I'll let you know what is decided as soon as a decision is made
(probably tomorrow).

Just to close the loop, the DNS is hosted at DreamHost and the tech-team has full access to update it.

Greetings.

It looks like a decision has been made. Please change the CNAME for
'irc.lopsa.org' to point to irc.libera.chat.

thanks!

Yes, but can you also drop an e-mail to tech...@lopsa.org so we have a ticket for tracking?

DNS has been updated. The TTL is only 5 min, so it should propagate quickly. Now if the ticketing system will just let me close the ticket...
