Update IRC Community #828

Changes look fine, regarding permission to list channels I imagine that if they were strict/limited access then a channel password/key would be in place. |

Typo ("discussion on Redux")

More generally, I think I'd like to see #rust-internals moved up into the section alongside #rust and #rust-beginners. Since it's not really a team channel per se, it likely fits better alongside the other main channels. As for the repetition, it does seem odd but I think it works out, at least for the topical channels. For the project-based channels, I would suggest rephrasing the description just for the libraries, since the application projects feel like they wouldn't need to be described as "a Rust text editor" or "a Rust web browser". The libraries are specific to Rust, but the applications aren't necessarily restricted to Rust in their execution, if that makes sense. For example:

| - [#rust-embedded][embedded_irc] is for people doing embedded software in Rust | ||
| - [#rust-gamedev][gamedev_irc] is for people doing game development in Rust |

self plug: mind also adding #rust-geo here?

| - [#rust-dev-tools][dev_tools_irc] is the home of the [developer tools team][dev_tools_team] | ||

| - [#rust-infra][infra_irc] is the home of the [infrastructure team][infra_team] |

[infra_irc] is not defined in the list of link definitions below
|
From discussions on IRC: It would be nice to add #serde and #rocket as well. |
All team channels were moved to a new section called "Team Channels". Added a bunch more community project channels. Removed the defunct rust-infra channel.
|
All comments have been addressed. |

r? @aturon This is what I wanted looked at on IRC, but I literally collapsed (into my bed) of exhaustion right before you responded last night. |

FYI, we recently removed #rust-offtopic from the channel list, due to its moderation and content being mixed (not necessarily a place we want to officially point people to).
More generally, it'd be good to put a big notice at the top, for topical channels, that these channels are not official and in particular aren't covered by the Rust moderation team.

@aturon How's that for the wording? Also removed -offtopic. |
|
Thanks @Havvy! |
Made some structural changes. Added any Rust related channel with more than 30 users except #diversity which I can add, but wasn't sure if it was proper. Also added all team channels and moved them to their own section.
There's a lot of repetition of the word "Rust" and "written in Rust". I'd be in favor of removing that repetition (leaving it implicit) if y'all agree with that.
Before I merge, I'd like a review from somebody on the docs team and somebody on the community team.
Removed channel: #rust-tools
Added team channels: #rust-dev-tools, #rust-infra, #rust-mods, #rust-style
Added topical channels: #hyper, #iron, #nom, #xi, #rust-machine-learning
I've not asked the people in the topical channels if they'd like to be added to this list.
