As I have mentioned earlier I am using irc.c now. As it seems quite
usable for me, I have added small fixes and uploaded the repo[0] to
this server.

Irc.c does not keep a nick name list per channel to keep bookkeeping
simple. This has the immediate downside that you don't get to see
nick changes in the right window and you don't see people leaving due
to QUIT messages.

I am not sure I want to 'fix' this by adding the overhead of member
lists in channels (yet).

I did add a weird fix for OFTC networks however. Servers on that
network will pass the channel name in the data part of the JOIN
message so irc.c wouldn't ever show joins on that network...

Also I cannot figure out how to detect reserved nicknames on nick
changes on networks that have NickServ services. Maybe you -- dear
reader -- knows why? Let me know!
