+      Due to recent events involving the Freenode IRC network, the #csc channel
+      on Freenode has been migrated to <a href="https://libera.chat">libera.chat</a>.
+      If you are in the #csc channel on Freenode, please migrate to libera.chat as
+      soon as possible. The two networks are currently being bridged temporarily
+      to ease the transition.
