[21:16] <Flohack> Good Eve
[21:16] <Flohack> I got a request concerning the #ubuntu-touch channel
[21:17] <Flohack> popey and I came up with the idea to redirect this channel to #ubports since there is no ubuntu touch interest any more in Canonical
[21:17] <Flohack> This was also endorsed by k11_, but now we are not sure how to proceed.
[21:18] <Flohack> So he mentioned I should show up here and ask for this redirection. The remaining users will benefit from being redirected on our ubports channel
[21:20] <Flohack> You can find our conversation here: https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2017/05/31/%23ubuntu-touch.html
[21:22] <Flohack> On our side plz contact mariogrip in #ubports for the details of the redirection
[21:46] <Unit193> One would have to request the bots be removed first, so they don't follow the redirect (or rejoin on restart), then the redirect could be set.  I personally see no reason not to redirect if it has been ACK'd by popey/Ubuntu touch people and the other side of the redirect.
[21:48] <Flohack> Oki nice
[21:52] <Unit193> popey: Will you make the request to rt@ to remove ubuntulog?
[21:54] <Flohack> That would be nice, if it can be handled from your side. I am IRC noob and ... yes ^^
[21:55] <Unit193> (I'm going to wait for a response from popey either way, first.)
[21:56] <Flohack> Yeah sure no worries. I will check back in the next days
[21:57] <popey> done
[21:57] <popey> (sent rt)
[21:59] <Unit193> Flohack: FYI, I'll either need to be OP'd in order to set the redirect, or the channel has to accept forwards.
[22:00] <Flohack> Ok let me see, here in Europe it is late, we might not get that set up now
[22:02] <popey> 104016 is the rt number
[22:07] <Flohack> So Im off for today, I ping back when we got you Opped
[22:07] <elky> i note that the channel will then be outside the definition of our namespace agreement with freenode and we will probably be less able to help in the future
[22:08] <elky> if that's ok with you guys then i see no problem with this
[22:08] <Flohack> What exactly does that mein
[22:09] <Unit193> Flohack: That means that the namespace wouldn't be under our control, and management would be up to you.
[22:09] <elky> Flohack: the group contacts for ubuntu have control of #ubuntu* #kubuntu* #edubuntu* etc. We don't have control of the #ub* namespace
[22:09] <Unit193> Eg, even if you get spammers that try to join via #ubuntu-touch.
[22:10] <Flohack> Yeah Isee. Well currently there is discussion about our future relationship with Canonical and Ubuntu, and lets see what comes up there. I can hardly ask for being under the Ubuntu hat if we for example would not be able to use the name Ubuntu Touch. But if we get that allowance, we can again discuss whats about that channel. For the moment that means: No problem, we could handle mgmt of the...
[22:10] <Flohack> ...channel ourselves
[22:11] <elky> just making sure that you were aware we'll be slightly less useful :)
[22:12] <Unit193> It amuses me that people I associate with KDE/Kubuntu are on the ACL. :)
[22:12] <Flohack> Yes its a shame that these things have to happen. But I see still a lot people asking questions in ubuntu-touch, and in ubports we have a bridge to Telegram, where we can help them much better
[22:14] <Flohack> So good night now =)
