Bug#385921: RFA: ircii-pana -- Advanced Internet Relay Chat client

[Daniel Jacobowitz <dan@debian.org>]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I request an adopter for the ircii-pana package.

The package description is:
 This is the bleeding edge of IRC software -- the most common
 functions normally done by scripts are coded into the client itself.
 It contains dozens of features such as:
 .
     * Built-in ANSI color (this is probably the biggest feature)
     * Ease of use -- dozens of useful command aliases to reduce typing
     * Built-in notify, protection, and bot lists
     * Built-in mass commands and tools
     * Extended set of DCC commands and built-in CDCC offering
     * Extended scripting functionality, including unique functions
     * Code is based on ircII-Plutonium and more recent ircII-EPIC
 .

I still use this program every day, including the SSL patches which I wrote
for it, but I haven't had time to do any serious maintenance on it in a
while.  I'll continue to maintain it in meanwhile, but if anyone is
interested in adopting and continuing to maintain this package, they are
welcome to.

I can provide a Subversion repository containing the recent history of
the bitchx packaging to any adopter.
