Subject: [ptxdist] [PATCH] doc: getting help: update IRC info and add Matrix too
Date: Wed, 16 Jun 2021 16:14:29 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210616141429.17800-1-rhi@pengutronix.de> (raw)

We moved the IRC channel to Libera.Chat after the takeover and the
successive reboot of Freenode under new owners, and since the recent
database purge at Freenode, we no longer have control over the old
channel.
