In 2001, the [Open and Free Technology Community (OFTC)][10] [IRC][20] |
|||
network was formed by those dissatisfied with what was offered for the free |
|||
software community by the Open Projects Network (OPN, later renamed to |
|||
[Freenode][30]). |
|||
|
|||
It aspired to [offer services beyond IRC][40], as something that |
|||
differentiated it from OPN. Those plans were never realized. Due perhaps |
|||
to the attention other IRC networks received during the Freenode management |
|||
change in 2021, [reference to those plans][50] was [ dropped][60] in late |
|||
May 2021. |
