One of the beta testers for GS/TCP (Dave Roberts) has written a farily complete
irc client which works quite well.  In fact, most of the bug fixes and
utility development for GS/TCP has taken place directly over #appleiigs, it
has been a great communications tool in that respect.

airc as well as ftp, telnet, httpd, and a slew of other things will all be
available once I re-arrange the driver interface.  This will allow me to sell
the individual device drivers, while keeping the main protocol stack free and
easily available via ftp (a big bonus for bugs fixes).  GS/TCP has been tested
fairly thoroughly by my beta testers, and has been instrumental in finding
some GNO bugs.

I'll post a complete feature/requirement list in the next few days.
