I believe the link as such should not be added, as it includes no guidance
about the nature of the channels. eg. #freebsd@IRCNet is much like it's
EFNet counterpart, only even more abusive towards newbies. And EFNet's
#bsdcode really serves a minor purpose these days, as a new channel has
been dedicated for those who really work on the sources, leaving #bsdcode
a mere hangaround joint.
