Can anyone indicate what the status of the #videolan IRC channel is? I did not find it on irc.freenode.org.
I have been out of the loop for a bit, so I am not aware if it has been shut down or something else?

The #videolan IRC channel is still alive and well.

How you are accessing it? I am not seeing it as one of the channels listed when I go to
https://webchat.freenode.net/ or via LimeChat. The closest I am finding is #vlc-ios.
UPDATE:
Do NOT use freenode anymore!
The new IRC server is: irc.libera.chat
The new web interface is: https://kiwiirc.com/nextclient/#ircs:// ... /#videolan

Thanks. It seems to be working now. Also needed to register my nickname with
NickSrv to get everything working.
