I'm most interested this oblique reference: "...add our DuckDuckGo Jabber Conference, it will soon be linked to the IRC channel #duckduckgo on freenode".
Where's the technology for linking an XMPP conference to an IRC channel? I lurk in some IRC channels that would love to migrate to a more modern protocol, and that seems a good way to bridge the gap.
- gettygermany 15y agoWe use a Perl Bot for this. It will uses POE-Components to connect to the IRC and to the XMPP and then dispatches the messages to one from the other. If you are interested, just join us on IRC and we talk about it :)
- p4bl0 15y agoA friend did this: https://gitorious.org/irctk https://gitorious.org/irctk ("irctk is a general-purpose IRC wrapper written in C with libircclient"). I think it could be pretty straightforward to do the job using it.
- gettygermany 15y agoWe prefer Perl, cause we got one solution for everything and can easily combine the thousands components offered. Just cause a lib does IRC doesnt help us much :-) It must be easy! :)
- cdr 15y agoAt one of my internships they had written a simple server in Java to bridge XMPP and IRC. Sounds like it's been re-invented a few times.
- agazso 15y agoXMPP has a concept of transports, that are gateways to other networks. Gateways exists for MSN, ICQ, AIM and IRC. And to answer your question, taka a look at http://xmpppy.sourceforge.net/irc/ http://xmpppy.sourceforge.net/irc/
