<span style='display:block; white-space:pre;color:#404040;'> Drop references to RocketChat, add Matrix
</span><span style='display:block; white-space:pre;color:#404040;'>
</span><span style='display:block; white-space:pre;color:#404040;'> We won't be bringing the Rocket Chat instance back (any time soon, or
</span><span style='display:block; white-space:pre;color:#404040;'> possibly ever), so drop the reference and instead direct users to IRC or
</span><span style='display:block; white-space:pre;color:#404040;'> Matrix.
</span><span style='display:block; white-space:pre;color:#404040;'>
</span><span style='display:block; white-space:pre;color:#404040;'> Add a few lines explaining why `mplog` is constantly spamming the
</span><span style='display:block; white-space:pre;color:#404040;'> channel, and why users might prefer Matrix over IRC.

fun conversation or a productive troubleshooting session, but please keep in mind that no one is guaranteed to be
around at any particular moment and that channel members are not obligated to answer your questions. If you fail to
get traction at any time, do not take it personally and simply direct your questions to the mailing lists instead.</p>
<p>The language of choice for the IRC channel is also English, for obvious reasons of universality, so sticking to it
<span style='display:block; white-space:pre;background:#ffe0e0;'>- is appreciated.</p>
</span><span style='display:block; white-space:pre;background:#e0ffe0;'>+ is appreciated. The IRC channel also receives a message for every commit made in the MacPorts project from a user
</span><span style='display:block; white-space:pre;background:#e0ffe0;'>+ called <code>mplog</code>. Feel free to ignore those messages.</p>

<p>If you would like a web-based interface to the IRC channel, one option is
