Bug ID: 66381
Summary: Apache Tomcat on IRC: Refers to wrong channel and/or
broken
Product: Tomcat 11
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: P2
Component: Documentation
Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org
Reporter: chea...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: -------
The Apache Tomcat on IRC page at https://tomcat.apache.org/irc.html refers to
#tomcat at irc.freenode.net and links to
http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=tomcat as a way to join it via a browser.
Unfortunately, there are only 4 users in that channel (excluding me) as I write
these lines. It doesn't even have a channel topic. Moreover, strangely, the
link will by default open #freenode, which is of course quite
irrelevant/confusing. Finally, it took me minutes to connect (I obtained
"Closing link: (~pcloutier@...) [Registration timeout]" several times).
Meanwhile, #tomcat on Libera has 19 other users. It has a topic (although it is
not reassuring).
I think the page should revisit which channel(s) it should mention and fix how
it suggests to join it/them.
