Active IRC for FIRST?

[Astronouth7303]

As one of the more active ops on #firstrobotics, it's been brought to my attention that our permissions need updating.

To this end, we are going to be moving. To where is under debate. We are considering several options:

1. Get FIRST to recognize us as official, thus being able to register the group with Freenode and keep #firstrobotics
2. Register FIRST Chat (as in http://firstchat.net/) and register that group
3. Move to the topical channel ##firstrobotics
4. Move to a different network (not a team-run network)

If you have anything to contribute to this discussion, please join #firstrobotics or use the web portal.

1 will never happen.

4 seems like the best choice - I recommend synIRC.

So we've tentatively decided on moving to #firstchat, after the appropriate group registration. No one present had objections to this.

If you disagree with this decision, please log on and voice your opinion ASAP.
