Please migrate to the new IRC channel #pharo

Damien Pollet
The IRC channel we're currently using is not registered with the freenode infrastructure. It's also named #pharo-project instead of #pharo because at the time there was a PHP framework of that name. Since then, however, the owner of #pharo transferred ownership to us.

It's not really a problem having the two channels (I think we can setup a redirection from one to the other), but at least both should be registered. Unfortunately, as long as there is anyone in #pharo, nobody can claim ownership, make announces in the topic, etc

I think the best course of action is for regulars to start connecting to both channels and to push discussions and lurkers to #pharo. I have changed the topic on #pharo to that effect. Then at some point we'll have to organize a synchonized emptying of #pharo-project so that we can claim ownership :)
