I don't recall the exact details at the moment, but some of those
"special cases" like #gentoo.de and #gentoofr have a very *long* history
and trying to move them would probably cause much stir.
Also, don't forget that we have both country channels (#gentoo-br and
#gentoo-pt) and language channels (#gentoofr is about support in French
and isn't limited to France).
