Perhaps I'm too much of an IRC noob, but I still found it it rather<br>
surprising to be banned from libera.chat (my IP is blacklisted) for<br>
pasting a 25-line build script for building GHC via hadrian on FreeBSD<br>
into the #ghc channel.<br>
<br>
This was in response to a discussion about issues with the bindist,<br>
how the port is built, ... and while perhaps I'm expected to use a<br>
paste bin, the abrupt ban was rather a harsh response.<br>
<br>
The ban appears to have been "temporary", an hour or so later I am<br>
able to reconnect, but this does not leave a good impression.<br>
