I agree with this and would suggest to follow the move of irc.debian.org
to OFTC on Sunday the 4th of june (as seen today on d-d-a). Having all
Debian-related channels on the same network makes sense, and in this
process I would also suggest a renaming of the channel to #debian-gnome,
which seems to be the #*debian* de-facto).

I understand that many still want to follow channels on GIMPnet and also
that we should try to keep in close touch with the upstream hackers, but
most sensible irc-clients today can handle multiple networks fine and
it's better to do upstream stuff in their channels.

Keeping close to *our* organization is imho more important, and this
points to a move to OFTC during the next couple of weeks.

Are there any large objections to this?

Cheers :)
