<p>Like so many wiki pages there is really only one good action:
send it to the circular folder.</p>
<p><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/help">https://www.openstreetmap.org/help</a> already lists all OSMF
operated services, and at SOTM we discussed that we might add in
one way of the other a pointer to the preferred national comms
channel. Lets simply keep that up-to-date. <br>

<pre wrap="">Hi,
I just wanted to paste the link to
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Contact_channels">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Contact_channels</a> into a message to a
newbie and checked if the content of page is up-to-date. By checking the
page some questions arised:
The page lists three XMPP channels. I checked if the English and the
Austrian are still in use. The English channel is out of use. The last
message is from 2016-11-22. There is currently about *one* message per
month. When I joined today, one other user was online. (#osm at
irc.oftc.net has 250 users and is active based on my own observations)
I was unable to check Austrian channel. My account at jabber.ccc.de is
not able to join, I get an error 403.
I did not check the Slovakian channel.
Are there any objections against moving the English channel into a
section called "formerly used communication channels"?
The page also lists a Teamspeak server. Because I avoid to install
proprietary software on my computer, I cannot test if it is in use. Are
there any objections against moving it to the section "formerly used
communication channels"? I have never heard of the use of Teamspeak for
communication inside the OpenStreetMap project.
I will drop a note on the Talk page of that wiki page for those people
who are interested in that page but do not read this mailing list.
Best regards
Michael
