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 :)
