Hi,

I don't if only I feel this way, but I think we have too many IRC
channels.  So a little clean up would be great:

These are to stay:
#gentoo
#gentoo-dev
#gentoo-groupcontacts
#gentoo-ops

#gentoo-alpha
#gentoo-amd64
#gentoo-amd64-dev
#gentoo-arm
#gentoo-bsd
#gentoo-hppa
#gentoo-hurd
#gentoo-ia64	Gentoo Linux/IA-64
#gentoo-mips	Gentoo Linux/MIPS
#gentoo-osx	Gentoo Linux/OSX
#gentoo-powerpc	Gentoo Linux/PowerPC (PPC and PPC64)
#gentoo-sparc	Gentoo Linux/Sparc
#gentoo-x86	Gentoo Linux/x86 development

 The ones that can go in my opinion (at least from this listing):
-hurd, -arm (already dead, -embeeded is the choice), -osx (not
available on Freenode anyway).  Because the -x86 channel only has about
20 permanent residents, I propose to join with amd64 (we are related!)
in a dev channel.
