Hello,
Just released a new beta of the Java IRC Client jIRCii
http://jirc.hick.org/

I've added a feature I call the jIRCii Launch Service.  The purpose behind
the jIRCii launch service is to make it easy to link to an irc channel
from a website with minimal muss and fuss.

http://jirc.hick.org/cgi-bin/launch.jnlp?irc://irc.freenode.net/jircii

The above URL will launch jIRCii to connect to irc.freenode.net and join
#jircii.  Someone wanting to put a front end javascript form onto such a
url could even let the user specify a nickname:

http://jirc.hick.org/cgi-bin/launch.jnlp?irc://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/channel

Regardless once that link is activated jIRCii will launch and with 0
configuration from the user, it will connect to the specified irc server
and join the specified channel.

Sure beats adding an ugly applet to a website.  Go webstart!
