Ctrlproxy project runs on a computer with a 24/7 internet connection and allows you to transparently connect to IRC from anywhere on the world to your nick.
It connects to one or more IRC servers and then allows you to connect to it with any number of clients, providing access to these servers. This is very useful if you don't want to leave IRC but still want to be able to use it from home, school or work.
Here are some key features of "Ctrlproxy":
Connect to one server with many clients under one nick transparently
Connect to multiple servers using only one process
CTCP support when no client is attached
irssi-style logging support
Transparent detaching and attaching of clients
Password support
Auto-Away support
Backlog replication. Replicate from last client quit or last line said by user.
Keeping track of number of times a certain user uses a certain pattern
Direct, inetd-style interfacing with local IRC servers (such as bitlbee)
Responses to queries are only sent to the originating client of the query
SSL support
Flood protection
Logging in a user-specified format
IPv6 support
Installation:
./configure
make
make install

libpopt

Caching has been introduced to reduce traffic with the IRC server where possible.
Several crash bugs and a large number of smaller bugs have been fixed.
Configuration has been simplified.
More replication backends have been added.
A test suite has been added.
