Pav Lucistnik f70216f3c3 IRCG is a fast, scalable web chat framework that connects a php frontend with
an irc backend. Sascha Schumann created IRCG a few years ago. Unfortunately, he
decided to change the license to a commercial one starting with Version 3 and
removed all traces of the BSD-Licensed IRCG 2. I kept on using the IRCG 2
sources and never had a problem with this setup.  IRCG connects an irc server
of your choice with a thttpd webserver.  Using PHP, the frontend can be
scripted. It?s mainly a framework for web-based chats, but could be used to
pass any type of xml messages between multiple clients. Memory and CPU usage
per client is quite low, so even an entry-level server can support hundreds of
clients.
