I have just completed all tasks that have been set for tIRC v1.1, some major bugs have been fixed and some additions have been made that will simplify your everyday life on IRC. The most vicious bug that has been fixed was bug #157 that prevented a user to interact with a channel or query, which contained “chokage” characters such as {[]}. Most chatters will be glad to hear that user highlighting and nick tab auto completion are fully implemented now. If you want to know about all changes that happened between tIRC 1.0 and tIRC 1.1, please refer to the changelog. tIRC can be downloaded from our Debian depot or by visiting our git repository at http://git.geekosphere.org/. Please notice that the first release candidate of v1.1 contained some obvious and disturbing bugs that have been fixed with rc2, the Debian package already contains rc2.

tIRC 1.0, that is currently still under development can now be obtained in Debian package form from this website. We plan on setting up a proper Debian depot on geek\o/sphere.org too, so that you can retrieve tIRC by adding our mirror to you sources.list file. For now, please use this link to download the package and install it using:
dpkg -i tirc_10_all.deb
Please be aware, that you will need the following packages in order to accomplish a successful installation: tcl8.5, tk8.5, tcllib, tcltls. If you want to use a modified version of tIRC, you may well do so. The current version in git features a new clp that will allow anyone to create a Debian package from the current source. Please refer to the debian/createdeb shellscript if you wish to know what exactly happens, so that your code gets properly included in the package.

We’ve just setup an UrbanTerror server on mount.at. It is accessible by the public and runs on 80.64.129.154:27960. UrbanTerror is a tactical shooter, that did depend on an existing Quake III installation in the past, but is now released as a standalone product, that is available to anyone, completly free of charge. You may acquire UrbanTerror from one of the many official mirror sites right now, as you will notice, UrbanTerror runs on Linux as well as Windows. If you get the chance drop by for some action and leave feedback, so that we can improve performance and gameplay (maps etc)

Mount.at is up and running again. We upgraded the hardware to what we think will last for some time (core 2 quad, 4gig ram). The reason mount.at went offline (yet again) was the defective onboard nic, we suppose the mainboard was just beginning to rot, because we encountered some issues with brand new memory as well, anyway it was time for an upgrade.
The jabber server and all other services should be available again by now, apart from the IRC service which will be offline until further notice.
