I think this is really great. I think it would get more traffic if there was a java interface.
IRC is a protocol, which allows anyone to choose their own client. I'd much rather use a client of my choosing (and under my control) than use a website where I have to use whatever chat interface has been decided.
If we had a web page with a java chat thingy, that'd be cool. Does anyone know a good open source answer?
Linux.com, which participates in the OPN, has a page with links to various clients that can be used. They also link to a page where they run a Java client to IRC.
