Getting a Matrix client
There are multiple clients available, see https://matrix.org/clients/
Connecting to Matrix via matrix.osgeo.org
OSGeo hosts an experimental Matrix homeserver reachable from address https://matrix.osgeo.org. Use this address when connecting your Matrix client.
The homeserver is a federated instance of Synapse running in an LXC container hosted on osgeo3 machine and administered by the OSGeo System Administration Committee.
The homeserver can be currently accessed by anyone with an OSGeo UserID. The Matrix ID for users will be @<LDAPUSER>:osgeo.org (for finding a LDAPUSER ID, use OSGeo User Search).
You can join *any* libera.chat IRC channel with an address like (#<irc_channel_name>:libera.chat). Example: #grass:libera.chat.
Example for connecting with "Element" client: enter in the home tab on the left you can click on the + next to the room list, add the libera.chat server, then browse the rooms there.
See section in Matrix page for how to effectively use IRC from matrix.
Technology behind all this:
- Configuration of the service is documented in SAC-private repository https://git.osgeo.org/gitea/sac/osgeo3/wiki/matrix-container
- Trac ticket which was used to track setup of this service is https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/2309
Connecting to OSGeo telegram channel via matrix.osgeo.org
