Please use this form to enter a freenode contact record for your
organization and/or projects. Make sure you're read the
explanation
of group registration. Provide as much information as you can, to help us
research your application to make sure your status as contact is
sanctioned officially by your project or group. We keep your contact
information private in accordance with our
privacy policy
Please be sure to follow any blue links for details and any special
information on required fields. Do not submit this form until
you've looked over it carefully; it's an early effort and there is
no error checking.
If you're filing as contact at the request of someone else, or
if someone else must authorize that status for you, make certain their
contact info gets filed too. You may file someone
else's contact information, with their permission.
Notes:
Request Type. Select
approving contact if you have the authority to approve
the group registration. Select being approved if it must
be approved by some other individual or group.
Approved By. List the
individual(s) or committee approving the contact person. If
you're the person approving the contact, this is your name. If
you're approving yourself as contact, specify self.

internal-only group or an informal group with only one
project might not have both a Group Name and a Project Name. Be sure
to specify a Group Name.

group or an informal group with only one project might not
have both a Group URL and a Project URL. Be sure to specify a Group

Channels. List the channels your
group and/or project currently uses or those
channels you believe you'll need. You can list a channel name
prefix followed by a wildcard character, as in #foo-*, to

you are able to assert ownership of those channels where the name
is clearly associated with your project or group, and eventually
this function may be automated.
Channel Type. Specify
primary
if you are the organization, group or project indicated by your
channel name. Specify
"about"
if your channel is unofficial and you have no external claim to the
organization, group or project name in question. Primary channel
names begin with "#" and "about" channel names begin with "##".
