Re: irc.gimp.org is now available via Matrix (was: Re: Thoughs about communication)

Oh I actually talked with Matthew today about this and opened a new bug:

https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-appservice-irc/issues/390 . In this case this is for disabling the spam filter they have so any non-registered user can talk with matrix users.

Also regarding Michael advice of not talking to [m] users, that's semi true, most of us already change the IRC handler to be our regular IRC nickname, so for example I'm csoriano even from Matrix. Which might be an issue if we are missing pm's....

Best regards,

Carlos Soriano

Hi,

I hit this yesterday and was planning to send a warning to this list,

but I see you've already done so. Here is a reminder. Do not attempt to

send private messages to Matrix users (people with [m] behind their

names) until this is fixed! Your messages will be *silently* dropped

without any notice to you or the intended recipient!

Michael
