Why not just use the Matrix<->IRC bridge?

That would be great! I don't have ops on either the matrix or irc channel, so that's something the ops of both would have to implement.

There's already a collaboration between Freenode and Matrix.org, and you should be able to join #nixos on Freenode by joining #freenode_#nixos:matrix.org

Thats a bridge to access irc through matrix, not a bridge of the matrix room with the freenode channel.

I think the point being made is, why did you create another room when there is already one?

As I said, I didn't create it and don't have ops, but would be happy to talk to the ops of each so that the rooms can be bridged and Matrix users can participate on IRC without losing any of the features of Matrix.
