The W3C Team uses a private IRC server for its internal worldwide communication. Within this private IRC server there is a distinction between local channels (following the &channel convention) and public channels (following the #channel convention). The latest version of Konversation adds a "#" sign to all channel strings typed after the join command. This is also true for joining via the menus or the channel list. Typing "/j &channel" results in joining "#&channel" whatever join mechanism is used. Expectation is that "/j &channel" results in joining channel "&channel". Evidently joining normal public #channels works, even if the #is omitted on the input line.
Git commit 72de2027f3d3e7a0c48aef6acd666e04fc0b19b1 by Eli MacKenzie. Committed on 24/08/2017 at 23:13. Pushed by argonel into branch '1.7'. Fix prefix-addressed message handling Messages sent to all channel operators or other mode-prefixed classes of channel members could use flags that conflict with channel prefix flags. This tries harder to ensure that the actual channel prefix is found.
