The way channel namespace authority works in Freenode is that they
want to see that namespace as a registered channel, so we need a
#oif channel regardless. If we don't use if for general OIF
discussions, then people are still likely to wander into it from
time to time and ask questions. It's really a question of whether we
have #oif *and* #oif-general (and people remain confused on which
one should be used for general OIF discussion), or just #oif.

You'll note that for the #openstack channel serves this same purpose
for the OpenStack community's channel namespace on Freenode, and
gets used primarily for general user questions.
