This is a list of some older ArchiveTeam projects' IRC channels. Now we don't collect project IRC channels on a separate page anymore, but back then we did. This list is basically unmodified, as it looked like in June 2015, just the "Status" column was removed. This page should not be edited, is kept for historical reasons.
