First off please note most IRC channels don't get questions answered
within a few hours. While it does happen from time to time it should
not be expected.
IRC is a weird thing to block intentionally. SSH tunneling easily
avoids this, though.

allowed/allow IRC within their network, no matter how it is tunnelled.
Sheesh, talk about negative. If you can't use it thats tough, don't
nay-say
others that can. I for one am in favour of this.
I was being realistic rather than negative. If only 5% of Hobbit admins
Are able to use this service then is it going to be that useful?
If a large proportion of admins can use it then go ahead, knock yourselves
out.
