Hi,

Due to recent developments around the Freenode.org IRC network, the opinions 
about the usage of this service shifted dramatically.

A small poll in the IRC channel at the end of last week showed that most 
(actively participating) users wanted to leave freenode and the network with 
the most positive votes was hackint.org. The new home at 
ircs://irc.hackint.org/batadv [1] was prepared on Sunday. You can find also 
other interesting channels in the neighborhood. #freifunk (including many 
communities), #gluon, #dn42, various CCC channels and many more.

We hope to see you soon in the new channel at 
ircs://irc.hackint.org/batadv

Kind regards,
	Sven

Btw. what happened to the old #batman channel on freenode is unrelated to our 
move (but happened interestingly at roughly the same time). I've never de-
registered anything or blocked/deauthed anyone on freenode during the move. 
Only the topic and entry message was changed to point to our website (with 
more information).

But the new freenode staff decided to perform some questionable actions [1] 
which resulted in a fractured network and a loss of the previously registered 
channels + nicks.

If you need to recover some information from the old chanserv/nickserv then 
you can try to connect to rinnegan.freenode.net or another server on the 
"old" freenode and query the services.

Kind regards,
	Sven
