[Bug 762667] New: Auto-redirect IRC channel #opw to #outreachy

["sysadmin" (GNOME Bugzilla) <bugzilla gnome org>]

Bug ID	762667
Summary	Auto-redirect IRC channel #opw to #outreachy
Classification	Infrastructure
Product	sysadmin
Version	unspecified
OS	Linux
Status	NEW
Severity	normal
Priority	Normal
Component	IRC
Assignee	sysadmin-maint@gnome.bugs
Reporter	a9016009@gmx.de

GNOME version	---

There are two different channels: #opw (older) and  #outreachy (newer). 
And both seem to have pretty much the same number of people (but not the same
people). This might needlessly divide the audience of Outreachy participants
and potential mentors etc. as there is no redirect.
See e.g. http://wiki.swiftirc.net/wiki/Channel_Link for redirect info.

CC'ing Marina as there's a small change that these channels somehow have
different meanings (one for GNOME, one for Outreachy in general?) that I'm not
aware of (but I could not find out as #opw is missing a channel topic).
