Agreed on the move and the dropping of the extra #. Tbh I think that was only
there because of the freenode channel naming policy and the fact that, at the
time of registration, it was a little debatable how official it was as the
project channel. Since then it's become that so that makes sense. Also, when
I got some more time I was going to propose this move anyway due to
what's happening at Freenode.

Cheers,
Adam.
