    The freenode channel was deleted by their staff. Fix that by moving to libera chat.

    Also includes minor cosmetic fixups :pig: :nail_care:

    No idea. They are still active and haven't been deleted by Freenode staff yet.

    I'm not a translation maintainer, only a coordinator for Ukrainian translation.

    Ah, sorry. I am an administrator.

    laanwj commented at 2:08 PM on May 31, 2021:

    After discussing on IRC with @hebasto : Rather than mention individual people here to contact, we might want to suggest people to ask in the channel. I generally prefer this, at least. Also, as we now have a GUI repository, they could file an issue there.


    MarcoFalke commented at 3:27 PM on May 31, 2021:

    The "default" way to ask for help is already to connect to IRC or file an issue, so I've removed this sentence completely.

  9. MarcoFalke commented at 10:43 AM on May 31, 2021: member

    Also they are only for registered users/invite-only on Libera Chat, so I won't change those links
