Freenode Cloaks

This is the list of contributors who have requested Fedora IRC cloaks for the freenode network.

In order to receive a cloak, you must have completed the following steps:

  • You need to have registered your nick with NickServ.
  • You need to have set an email address with NickServ.
  • You need to have created an alternate nick and linked it to your primary nick with NickServ.
  • You must be in the Fedora Account System and should have completed the FPCA before you are eligible for a cloak.
  • The nick you list here does not need to be your primary nick, but must be linked to your primary nick.
If you need instructions for using NickServ, try "/msg NickServ HELP" from the chatline of your IRC client after you have connected to freenode.

If you have not done these things, freenode will not allow us to create your cloak. If you don't know how to do these things, follow the instructions here: https://freenode.net/kb/answer/registration

Your cloak will be: *@fedora/yourIRCnick If you want something different from that (e.g. @fedora/FASUSERNAME), please specify it in the comments field.

Note that freenode does not support the use of underscores "_" in cloaks. Other non-alphanumeric characters may also not be supported and will be omitted from the cloak. If you have a preference of how you want your cloak to look, please put it in the comment field.

After adding your entry, please be patient until the next round of cloak creations. This is a manual process.

Please do not delete example line. Please do not replace the table description line with your cloak request. Please do not eat silica gel.
