Para que é usado o irc.ubuntu.com?

Question

Os canais de IRC são uma das partes mais significativas da infraestrutura da comunidade do Ubuntu. No entanto, todos os canais do Ubuntu que já conheci estão hospedados no irc.freenode.net . Qual é o objetivo do irc.ubuntu.com ? Eu vi alguns usuários afirmando que eles podem ser encontrados lá ... Mas esse servidor é usado?

irc.freenode.com e irc.ubuntu.com referem-se à mesma coleção de servidores irc. Ambos são CNAMEs (DNS aliases) para chat.freenode.net. A configuração atual é a seguinte

Answer 2

Como indicado em canais de IRC do Ubuntu
Existem vários canais IRC (Internet Relay Chat) na rede freenode (irc.freenode.net) usados para suporte e desenvolvimento do Ubuntu.

O melhor lugar para começar a ajuda geral com o Ubuntu ou apenas para conhecer outros usuários do Ubuntu é o #ubuntu ou um dos muitos canais de idioma local.

Canais específicos estão disponíveis para os derivados do Ubuntu: #kubuntu, #edubuntu, #lubuntu e #xubuntu e canais separados estão relacionados a desenvolvimento, bugs, equipes da comunidade local (LoCo), acessibilidade e documentação. Escolha na lista atual de canais.
espero que ajude.
