The ircfs site t is up now:

ircfs is great, and its gui is great too, and mjl is a great hacker.
Thanks for linking this.
And does the world really need yet another python irc client? And I'm
not sure what makes merp particularly 'suckless' (whatever anything
written in Python can be 'suckless' is very questionable).
I agree that python requires relatively more infrastructure and is not
suckless. I never claimed merp is suckless in terms of implementation
as it was only meant to be a prototype and had to work in Windows, but
I think its minimal interface makes it conducive to a suckless
implementation in some simpler language. I was thinking that when the
Go graphics package becomes more usable, I'd like to try to make a Go
version.
I do like the minimal interface, especially sending messages entered
in the server console straight to the server rather than using /
commands.
But I do praise the choice of Tk for the gui.

The old wmii community probably knows that one well enough, but for
all the others I'd like to promote ircfs from Mechiel Lukkien. It
runs
on inferno and includes a 9p server and tk client.
Sadly his site is currently down, but here's a paper from him:
