Do you think that hosting it on any other irc > network is likely to change matters, though? You have to realise that "host on another network" is a euphemism for "hostile takeover [by me/us] because I think I could run it better". Both are completely insane notions. A channel is not formed from a declaration by some random person, it is comprised entirely from the people that occupy it. You can't "move a channel", and you can't "take it over", all you can do is persuade the people in it to (a) join a different channel, and (b) leave the original one. That's an exercise in herding pigeons. -- .''`. ** Debian GNU/Linux ** | Andrew Suffield : :' : http://www.debian.org/ | `. `' | `- -><- |
