Hey folks,

We restarted IRIS today, the downtime was quite literally less than 30 seconds. We restarted it for two reasons:

  • The /SLAP function has now been removed from IRIS, per popular request.
  • IRIS now supports HTTPS.

This means that, in addition to accessing the plaintext webchat client at http://webchat.ext3.net/, you can now also access the SSL webchat client at https://webchat.ext3.net/.

Apologies if the restart-disconnect was an inconvenience for you; it’s all just part of our master plan to continue to bring you a better IRC experience!

As usual, questions/concerns/comments/etc to #ext3.
