Description Jonas Stein gentoo-dev 2025-04-22 18:12:06 UTC
Please dissolve #gentoo-printing

Reason: 
The channel is quiet since years.
It arrived at a point where it would make sense to shut it down and users with questions regarding the packages ask on one of the other channels, that fit. 

Unused channels clutter the list of available channels, making it harder for users to find active and relevant ones. We have fewer channels to monitor and maintain, reducing their workload and potential management issues. Active but empty channels can give a negative impression to new users, as they may see the network as inactive or poorly maintained.

Agreed by dilfridge and tamiko (Project Printing) via mail

Reproducible: Always

Two requests, please:
1. Mention the bug link on wiki changes for things like this;
2. If you're going to suggest changes to IRC, please set up an IRC bouncer. People keep trying to reply to you but you're gone.
