Description Alexandre Emsenhuber [IAlex] 2009-02-12 20:56:45 UTC 
I sometimes received private messages from people on irc.wikimedia.org but I think this should be forbidden for consistency with channels which are read only.
Comment 1 Filip Maljkovic [Dungodung] 2009-02-12 22:35:22 UTC 
I don't see a clear need for that. Besides, private messages proved to be helpful to me a few times.
Comment 2 Platonides 2009-02-12 22:52:31 UTC 
I also find it useful.
Comment 3 Mike.lifeguard 2009-03-23 01:42:54 UTC 
We have an 'IRC' component now. Also added shell keyword.
Comment 4 Mike.lifeguard 2009-03-23 02:00:40 UTC 
I suspect this shouldn't be considered to block bug 16599 since this is to do with Wikimedia's irc server, nothing to do with development of the recentchanges/rc code. Will leave it to someone else to do something with that or not.
Comment 5 Brion Vibber 2009-05-28 18:53:40 UTC 
We've got a couple requests here not to block PMs, and I don't see a compelling reason to block them, so going to give this an INVALID for now.
