The two portions were written separately (web and IRC), and the IRC
part still works - however naturally it is useless without a web
portion. The source for the IRC part is available.

I think the specification/request for coders can be considered to be
for the production of the web interface, with the IRC part as an aside
- if it can be re-written, great.  If not, we do have a functional
model at the moment.

Sadly while both myself and Sean have access to the stable server and
hence the code, both of us lack the knowledge and ability to fix it.
