It does indeed sound like you might be caught up in the aforementioned SASL-only network blacklist (I wasn't even aware of it until this ML thread) which Freenode staff seem to be using to help block the spam onslaught from some known parts of the Internet. Your workaround with the webclient is precisely what I would have recommended in such situations too. This is entirely independent from the Infra team measure to require nick registration in official OpenStack IRC channels, but certainly another symptom of the same fundamental problem. -- Jeremy Stanley
