Meaning it is federated, you can connect to any server you want and
the protocol is open and dead simple + there are hundreds of clients.
Including web based.. in case you did not look. The same applies to
archiver services for IRC.

So just setup an archive, publish the irc information + a link to web
based client and you get the best of both worlds.

The only alternative that got close was Jabber (IM, groups and
supports file transfers), too bad the adoption there is stagnating.
