I would also have to agree with this, there is no reason for OpenNIC 
conversations to be encrypted/secret, in fact they should be as public as 
possible for maximum transparency. Basically everything is compatible with 
IRC nowadays and there's no point moving to some closed source third party 
application.

You can't honestly be serious about moving away from IRC and the 
inconvenience it would cause to people? Is there any justification for 
leaving IRC? Freenode has SSL, we have no problems with spam, there is no 
reason for OpenNIC to do its business in secret, people will have to leave 
extra closed-source programs running at the same time, which might not work 
on Linux and for what? FOR WHAT?
