+Interest in IRC has long since been waning. In 2023, the Eclipse Foundation launched the [https://chat.eclipse.org/ Eclipse Chat Service], based on Matrix.
-IRC is an excellent public forum -- both for helping users and for getting to know other committers.  We have official group status on [http://freenode.net link Freenode].  You can connect to Freenode by pointing your IRC client at irc.freenode.net.  We maintain the following channels:
-    #eclipse - questions from plug-in developers and users
-    #eclipse-dev - Eclipse committer discussion and socializing
-    #eclipse-commits - lists all commits as they come in (See [http://cia.navi.cx link CIA])
-A [http://echelog.matzon.dk/?eclipse link log] of the the traffic on #eclipse is available on the web.
+For those still interested in the use of IRC, there remains an [https://wiki.eclipse.org/IRC_FAQ IRC_FAQ].
-There is a [http://eclipsewiki.editme.com/IrcFaq link second Eclipse IRC FAQ] available on-line.
-If you are a committer, then you can get yourself a developer cloak.  A developer cloak identifies you as a committer on the Eclipse project, gives you some privileges on the channel and masks your hostname.  If you would like a developer cloak, please contact desudation or Kurrelgyre on IRC.
