While there are already a pile of IRC channels that already exist for pretty
much everything linux (being a community of computer geeks, this is to be
expected), it would be pretty much trivial to set up something like the
"telnet-to-a-port pseudo IRC" Java thing I mentioned a week or so ago.  I'd
leave a terminal open in there.  (I'd even host the thing on c.m.o if need
be).  Full-blown IRC seems like a bit of overkill for just 1 or 2 channels.
It could be that I just don't know what I'm talking about though. :)

Boy, I sure picked the right time for my e-mail to be down, eh? :)
