Hi everyone, A few of us have started using #ispconfig on freenode to chat about various thing related to ISPConfig. Feel free to drop in and say hello. We'll do our best to answer your questions. server details below. IRC Server: irc.freenode.net channel: #ispconfig At some stage we would ask for this be considered at the official IRC channel and hence with the blessing of the developers we would register the channel in accordance with freenode rules. Tell us what you think of this? Regards, Peter Tiggerdine Interested obverser.
yes i know its very old post though, i want to push this topic who owns the channel? maybe someone who reads this forum.
This IRC channel is no official channel from the ispconfig project and not used by the ispconfig developers.
No, because we have this forum, and in my opinion it doesn't make sense to maintain two support channels (forum + IRC).
IMO it's a good way to have chats about development of ispconfig. I think there should atleast be a channel for the developers to discuss certain stuff at times. Forums and email conversations is for support, general talk and/or development talk on IRC for fast(er) responses. That's just my opinion though.
If it means anything, I've been hanging out in the irc channel a lot lately. I for one, would really like having a central irc communication channel. I'm mostly doing development on my own in the dark here, be nice to do development in a communication channel with other developers more lively talking about the project. (EDIT: I noticed this is also ISPConfig2 forums however.. I'm using ISPConfig3)
If you like to communicate with the developers, please use the developer forum: http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=33
per topical group listings ( http://freenode.net/topical_groups.shtml ) an unofficial irc channel can be made @ ##ispconfig for unofficial talk and discussion in regards to ispconfig. it's logical for #ispconfig to be banned/invite only since the devs and main people prefer the forums. of course, it's at your own risk, as there would be no offical devs there, or true owners, so if ##ispconfig does exist, you can try it, but probably with no true solution unless the people @ the channel do the work for you and search the forums/documentation... which is kinda redundant..
