typically when you have a chat client, the chat server interoperates with the push server. In the case of IRC, the people running the IRC server could do expose an API that the IRC client uses. If the people running the server don't want to do that (and I'm assuming they're not interested, or there'd be services for non-ubuntu smartphones already), then you need some kind of mediation, a bouncer, and you'd need to trust it enough. Or you could have a generic bouncer that joins the channels you join, but you'd miss out on private messages. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
