Description Michael Leuchtenburg 2004-11-14 21:17:44 UTC
Gentoo should have an official off-topic IRC channel. It looks like #gentoo-ot on Freenode is registered by a Gentoo dev (dmwaters@gentoo.org). I think that this should become the official off-topic channel for Gentoo, and be listed on the website. That way on-topic people have a place to send conversations when they become terribly off-topic. Having it listed on the website would make people much more likely to go there on their own, in search of conversation with other similar-minded people.

I seriously doubt adding #gentoo-ot to irc.xml is going to diminish the amount
of OT discussion in #gentoo and other channels by any significant degree.

That said, added it anyway.  Just for giggles.
