Didn't seanw write some system for exactly
that, or is it broken for
ages?
Sean and a couple of others did write one which was used for a couple
years. It has been broken since July due to some changes to the
toolserver
(I believe).
I wrote one years ago that was very simple, and then Martin and Kalan
wrote a replacement that was a lot more useful. Then that one broke, and
Kalan and Martin's availability took a hit due to them both starting
university, so it hasn't been fixed. In any case Kalan was planning to
rewrite at least the web-based bit.
The two portions were written separately (web and IRC), and the IRC
part still works - however naturally it is useless without a web
portion. The source for the IRC part is available.
I think the specification/request for coders can be considered to be
for the production of the web interface, with the IRC part as an aside
- if it can be re-written, great. If not, we do have a functional
model at the moment.
Sadly while both myself and Sean have access to the stable server and
hence the code, both of us lack the knowledge and ability to fix it.
