Developer Request
InsaneJournal wants to start offering integrated IRC chat into the site. I want this to be done via a Java IRC client. The client should use enduser resources to connect to the IRC server. Now I understand that there are already a lot of clients out there already and I would not be opposed to using one.

Our limitations. The server will *NOT* be running an IRC server. Thats just asking for trouble as I dont have any IRC admin experience not to mention our limited bandwidth. Now I should be able to put this right into a BML file.

If anyone out there has experience doing this it would be greatly appreciated. Please comment with suggestions and ideas.

	I myself run a (small) IRC server, and I can give you the code for a java applet, as well as the address for connecting via mIRC and other clients. Email is naota@kawinma.net (Reply to this)

	Chatroom? Board? No real xp but a caution-- I remember the old "chat" that came with yahoo's groups. The "rooms" were terrible. Something like g-talk maybe [but not g-talk], with the limited bandwidth-- no frills. Just basis integrated chat perhaps. spike (Reply to this) (Thread)
