FYI On 12/04/2024, 09:13, "Jose Kahan" <jose.kahan@w3.org <mailto:jose.kahan@w3.org>> wrote: Dear Chairs, Due to abuse coming from users of the Matrix <-> W3C IRC Bridge, we have decided to deprecate this interface and have asked its maintainers to shut it down. This will happen on Monday April 15th at 12h00 UTC. Note that this means that once the bridge goes down, users who were connecting by means of the bridge will be disconnected. Some channels that were created directly on our server by means of the Matrix Bridge may be depopulated and closed down too. Please inform your users that they will need to connect to our irc server directly or using our web irc client [1]. Moving on, we would like to ask you that if you're running relay bots / bridge bots or other bots in your channels we would appreciate if you make us aware of them by sending mail to w3t-sys@w3.org <mailto:w3t-sys@w3.org>. Those that we're not aware off will eventually be kicked from the server and be banned from reconnecting. We take this opportunity to remind you that our public IRC server is meant to support work related to W3C activities and events. --José on behalf of the W3C Systems Team [1] https://www.w3.org/Project/IRC/ <https://www.w3.org/Project/IRC/>
