New IRC channel / network

Not too much happening here on our blog, but in light of the recent changes in freenode ownership we decided to host our own IRC server. 

You can access the #general channel on irc.freegamedev.net (SSL only, port 6697). For now it still bridges back to the old #freegamer on freenode. 

Other already available channels are: #opengameart, #libregamewiki, #libregamenight, #supertuxkart, #hedgewars, #flarerpg and some others. Feel free to add your own and we can also bridge it. 

The easiest way to access it is via our very nice webchat at https://freegamedev.net/irc/ (even supports channel history, so just pass by from time to time). 

For the XMPP users there is als a gateway to all channels, for example just use #general@irc.freegamedev.net as the MUC address. 

See you on IRC :)
