[JDEV] Help : IRC module... giving a not implemented error.

[Benoit Orihuela]

hi,

I've made some modifications to the IRC-transport in order to make it
work with the new conferencing protocol (http://jabber.org/?oid=1630,
to my knowledge, that's the last version). I've also added support for
jabber:iq:browse namespace. I've also corrected some bugs and added
some features. 
The problem is that it needs a server and a client that support this new
conferencing protocol. The current jcf implementation makes it
possible to use the irc-transport (I use it to access our local irc
server and it works fine). For the client side, that's more
problematic. I've made some hacks in gabber and I can now browse the
conference services, enter or create a room, ... but I'm not familiar
with gabber (and with GUI development in general) so I'm not sure it
worths being integrated in it ... 
Anyway, I gonna clean the code I've written, add some notes about what
I've done in the module and put it the contrib zone tomorrow or
thursday. 

Regards,

Benoit.
