Thanks!
I suggest to keep it low key and just state the fact that we have
moved our official #svn and #svn-dev channels, giving the location of
the new channels, and stating that the old channels are retired, i.e.,
no longer the official IRC channels of this project. There isn't any
value to be gained from making statements about the old venue.
