517908 - Use "ircnet.eversible.com" for "ircnet" built-in network

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Other Applications Graveyard :: ChatZilla, defect)

Description

[James Ross]

The IRCnet network had only one global server, "irc.open-ircnet.net", which has disappeared. Their website has no better suggestions, only a list of localised servers which are no use to us.

Unless a better, more-likely-to-survive, domain name can be suggested and verified I propose we remove this network from our list.

ircnet.eversible.com seems to at least be open access, id est can be used by anyone? Would that work? It's been around for about 2 years, it seems, so chances seem good it won't just fall off the internet...

Where did you get that server name from?

http://www.ircnet.com/ lists it, in a newsitem from June 2007. :X

Seems like it's still working though!

We'll take it, I guess.
