It's all a matter of perspective, and you're paying attention to how it's phrased by people who are already using IRC (the bulk of our current community). You could just as easily phrase it as "some projects are moving to Matrix, but taking advantage of the available Matrix/IRC bridge so that users of the old IRC channels aren't left behind." Technically the solution is the same one as "let's recommend a Matrix/IRC bridge to anyone who wants to talk with people on IRC without using IRC." The main difference is in how it's documented and communicated. -- Jeremy Stanley

It is True without context. I may be wrong, but I do not remember any big change in OpenStack community (maybe only the 4 opens and nova-net -> neutron, but it's earlier days). If something was used/developed/decided 10 years ago, we will live with that forever. That is why I read all suggestions of using matrix as "if you don't like the chosen way, we are very sorry, but please find a way to leave with it. this is the way." :) -- Best regards, Andrey Kurilin.
