The Gentoo Council held an emergency single agenda item meeting today. 
At this meeting, we have decided to move the official IRC presence of 
Gentoo to the Libera Chat IRC network [1]. We intend to have this move 
complete at latest by 13/June/2021. A full log of the meeting will be 
available for download soon [2].

At the moment it is unclear whether we will retain any presence on 
Freenode at all; we urge all users of the #gentoo channel namespace to 
move to Libera Chat immediately. IRC channel names will remain 
(mostly) identical. You will be able to recognize Gentoo developers on 
Libera Chat by their IRC cloak in the usual form gentoo/developer/*. 
All other technical aspects will feel rather familiar to all of us as 
well. Detailed instructions for setting up various IRC clients can be 
found on the help pages [3] of the IRC network.
