Hello Roberts,

there is a #math channel on freenode as well, but I never found there some
maxima-users. There are some mathematica-bots inside and they normaly use
them and the discussions are not program-specific, so I think #maxima is a
good thing.

Besides I think #maxima had a good start, there were around ten visitors on
the first day. I hope it gets some more traffic.

Kind regards,
Philipp
