@section Sample Session
This is an example ERC session which shows how to connect to the
#emacs channel on Libera.Chat. Another IRC channel on Libera.Chat
that may be of interest is #erc, which is a channel where ERC users

other free software communities---relocated to the Libera.Chat network
in the aftermath of changes in governance and policies of Freenode in
May and June 2021. GNU and FSF's announcements about this are at
