	Channel takeovers are not dealt with at all by IRC Operators on EFnet
except on very rare occasions. I won't belabour the point, but DALnet
offers a lot of advantages including nick and channel registration
services. There is actually a pretty lively crowd on dalnet #freebsd
already, although there is room for a new channel if y'all so desire. 

Enjoy,

Doug
