Thoughts on IRC.

Upon furthur reflection, I think it may be better to set up an IRC
server (perhaps linked to an IRC network) as a hidden service, instead
of explicitly allowing IRC traffic via an exit policy. 

The problems:

1) Someone needs to set up and advertise an IRC server as a hidden
service. 

2) The TOR address of the IRC server needs to be published. 

3) To use this service, you need to figure out how to make an IRC client
work through SOCKS. 

Any other problems?
