[23:38] <ScottK> jussi: Could you help me figure out who "owns" #ubuntu-python?
[23:40] <erUSUL> ScottK: freenode-staff         +voOtsriRfAF
[23:41] <ScottK> erUSUL: Can you translate that into English for the IRC impaired?
[23:42] <erUSUL> ScottK: freenode-estaff is a cloak of freenode staffers afaik; they probably registered it preemptively or maybe they just regained ownership after seeing someone not allowed using the chan ?
[23:42] <marienz> the previous owner disappeared, so it's now owned by the freenode-staff fake(ish) account. To regain control of it you need to get a ubuntu group contact to ask a freenode staffer to transfer ownership.
[23:43] <marienz> if the founder account is dropped it falls to freenode-staff automatically. It's more likely that's what happened than that it was explicitly transferred to freenode-staff.
[23:43] <ScottK> OK
[23:43] <marienz> (I'm freenode staff, in case you missed that part)
[23:44] <erUSUL> ScottK: there you go :) just ping jussi Pici topyli tsimpson or nhandler XD
[23:44] <ScottK> marienz: I did.
[23:44] <ScottK> (miss that)
[23:46] <ScottK> jussi: I'd like to get this channel under control so we can redirect people to #debian-python on OFTC where the joint Ubuntu/Debian python work happens.
[23:46] <ScottK> Thanks.
