I'm going to start idling more in #ubuntu-us-md on Freenode. I have this feeling people are thinking this team is dead, and instead we should be looking to build it.
Reviving the IRC channel

What is Freenode? #ubuntu-us-md ?
Some of us do not use IRC/Chat or whatever seems to be used by this LoCo forum.
(Wow, I need to pay more attention to the forums!)
Freenode is an IRC network, which provides discussion servers for the Free Software community: http://freenode.net/
The channel "#ubuntu-us-md" is our channel. It's quite quiet, but I'm there when I'm online.
It is quiet indeed! I do check in frequently though :)
It would be nice if someone would revive these threads since they work well for my system. However I guess if one wants to participate one must keep up with the technology. So far IRC/RSS and some of the feed systems have been security nightmares for me. I had to remove the Google Webfeeds from Firefox because it kept picking up unwanted feeds.
If someone has a solution to the security issue say something, please?
