The mission of the Routing Team is to ensure a robust and resilient hub and client server infrastructure for the staff and users of the PulseChat IRC Network.
The PulseChat Routing Team:
- Maintains PulseChat’s routing infrastructure, which includes coordination of peering relationships with other providers at various Internet Exchange points, as well as managing the IX servers and their interconnections.
- Evaluates all incoming server applications for accuracy, completion, and technical merit.
- Assists in the linking of servers, and serves as the first point of contact for network stability issues from both staff and providers who host PulseChat servers.
The current Routing Team members are:
* cman (Team Leader)
