no more irc chat client

[Carl Karsten]

xChat-gnome got dropped from dapper and nothing replaced it.

(4:10:55 PM) CarlFK: !ubotu: seen
(4:10:57 PM) ubotu: there are 18565 seen entries that I know of.

18,000 is a lot of people.  some of them got some good help.  Some of them would 
not if they had to install a chat client.

With irc://irc.freenode.net/ubuntu is on the opening Firefox page, I bet more 
people will get support.  I am sure that pulling that from the FF page will 
result in less people getting that support.

I realize that "X people getting support" is hard to compare to "Y people using 
app so-and-so" - but the support can span all parts of ubuntu, an app is just an 
app.

I also realize that everything must be given a priority and to make room at the 
top things on the bottom get dropped.

Should an avenue of support really be at the bottom of the priority list?
