I seem to recall that someone had put a petition into Freenode to fix this, but I don't know what came of that.
I'll plan on hanging out on #freenode and asking for help later on today. This is silly :-/.
Urk. It's even worse than I thought.
To fix this, we need to submit a group registration: http://freenode.net/group_registration.shtml
But they have a backlog...of months, and not single digit months. The only hope for is that the request on behalf of Wine that did go in a while ago may be getting near the top (I submitted a new one today as well).
So I've sent email off to Mike and Andi begging them to help us out; I've specifically asked them to make Alexandre the contact.
If anyone sees either of them in a bar, please trap them and make them sign on and fix this.
Cheers,
Jeremy
I submitted one ages ago and it was approved. Sorry that I've not been in IRC for ages, just lots to deal with outside of computer-land these days. For the record it took about a year and a half for the group registration to go through. AFAIK I now have overriding rights and control of the channels (although it's not shown in access).
If anyone needs anything added or changed (including hostmasks) just email me.
