Hey,

Could we bridge the IRC room #drupal-infrastructure with the matrix room #drupal-infrastructure:matrix.org?
This would make a nice example on the matrix bridge functionality.
We have already some bridges running, namely #drupal-aegir and #drupal-nl.
A bridge needs a IRC user with op rights in that room to confirm the bridge.

What is a bridge?

Once a bridge started, it will join the room as a IRC user and create virtual users in the matrix users for each IRC user online.
Same for the reverse, each matrix user will get created by the bridge as a IRC user.
Crosstalk is possible, as each message gets duplicated on the other side by the (virtual) user.
You can see this already at work at https://riot.im/app/#/room/#drupal-aegir:matrix.org

As we are planning to give a session about matrix and bridging possibilities at Drupalcon Vienna,
having a few rooms already bridged would help.

Many thanks and cheers!
Tom
