Today, 2 MSX related IRC chat channels were opened on the IRC-Hispano network. After a time of absense, the #msx channel on the network has been re-opened, while a new, development related channel, #msxdev, has been opened on the IRC-Hispano network network as well.
#msx at Rizon
A few months ago, a new MSX chat channel aiming at generic MSX talk and development was opened on Rizon. During its first months, the channel already grew quite a lot of regular visitors who discovered the channel by word of mouth.
#msx on irc.msxall.com
Julio Marchi of msxall has started an MSX chat channel on his own IRC server, after the afternet network (on which the popular Brazilian MSX channel was located) had been down for several days. The new IRC server is intended to be used solely for the MSX channel. MSX users from all over the world are invited to have a look and test the channel.
The popular MSX IRC channel #msxdev has moved to the Rizon network. IRC is a great way to meet people from all over the world and chat about MSX with them.
After having announced a temporary move earlier, ongoing problems have forced the #msxdev management to make the move permanent.
Finally the web portal to the #MSXDev IRC channel (Aniverse network) is fully working again.
Those who are unable to use mIRC or another IRC client can now actually join the discussions in stead of only viewing them silently.
Earlier this week we reported about several updates at Generation MSX, one of which was the possibility for visitors to add covers of games to the database.
