Using this mechanism it's very easy to direct your users to your chat channel(s). They never even have to know what IRC is, in fact. You can construct URLs directing users to your specific channel(s) using the ?channels query string parameter, as follows: text/html 2012-02-02T20:19:37+00:00 Jon Portnoy http://eris.oppresses.us/docs/wiki/doku.php?id=contact&rev=1328213977&do=diff Server operators are usually available via #eris -- We'd be happy to try to assist you.

OFTC's patchset combined with our changes make ircd-hybrid much more appropriate for smaller networks.

It is designed specifically for oftc-hybrid/bc6 and went live on cobaltirc on November 2nd, 2011. It is event-driven and very responsive. Under stress testing, Circe has been able to keep up rather well with 500+ concurrent user requests (randomized from lists of services commands). text/html 2012-02-02T19:25:05+00:00 Jon Portnoy http://eris.oppresses.us/docs/wiki/doku.php?id=start&rev=1328210705&do=diff Current network usage: channels ( public) --> irc.cobaltirc.org (ipv6-enabled, SSL via port 6697) Start chatting now via eris webirc What's this?
