[Adium-devl] Freenode cloak for Adium

[Colin Barrett]

I'm not accusing you or lilo of anything, other than being slow. I  
don't have a problem with you or Evan or anyone else filing. I went  
ahead and did it because I am the channel owner. I don't have a  
problem with the phone thing. It's just sometimes a bit hard to reach  
me by phone.

I just wanted to know what had happened to my earlier application.  
Anything you can do to grease the wheels is fine.

-Colin

p.s. Evan, lilo (aka Rob Levin) is the founder and manager of freenode.
