The JT-IRC Support site

Hello and welcome to the JT-IRC Support site - In cooperation with the TalkTull Discussion List.

This website is devoted to the #jethrotull IRC channel used by Jethro Tull fans, young and old. If you are new to IRC (Internet Relay Chat), there are many good sites on IRC setup, commands and IRC in general. The purpose of this site is to help you set up and configure your IRC client (IRC software) to connect to the IRC network below and join in on the chat in the #jethrotull channel (chat room). If you do not want to download and install an IRC client, there is also a link to the JT-IRC Java Chat portal, in which you can use your web browser to chat. Web-TV users are not left behind either - Instructions for setting up WebTV are are on this site also. But before we get into that, there are a few things that you should know first.

First, Ravenshorn is not pronounced ravens-horn. It is pronounced raven-shorn.
Now that we have that straight... :)

Scheduled chats:
Every Monday 8:00 PM EST (5:00PM PST, 1:00AM GMT)
Every Saturday 10:00AM EST (7:00AM PST, 3:00PM GMT)
There is usually someone broadcasting music for the Tull chats. You must have Winamp, RealPlayer, or a recent version of Windows Media Player to listen in. Ask for the broadcast URL in the channel.
(We don't necessarily broadcast Tull all the time, but if you like Tull, chances are you'll like the stuff we broadcast...)

Eezy access to the chat: To access AfterNet, type /server irc.afternet.org in the editbox of your irc client. Then type /join #jethrotull to get to the chatroom. You can also access the chat via the
JT-IRC Java Chat Portal

There is currently a new IRC "network" called TullNet. At present it consists of only one server, and the software is currently unregistered. There have been many serious test runs and plans are being made to register it. Currently in its unregistered state it can only maintain 10 simultaneous connections. For more news on TullNet go to the TullNet site. (Addendum: TullNet is currently down. I've played with it and now I am currently working on registering the software so that more than 10 users can be logged in at once. If anybody is willing to help out, I won't argue. :))
XNet is currently down as of August 12, 2002. I don't know if this is a permanent happening or what, but even the website and domain name is kapoot. I tried emailing the webmaster and even that bounced. SO... If you haven't already figured it out by the changes made to this page... I have us set back up on AfterNet. Also some changes will be made to the scripts. In a major way.
Currently working on a major script redo. This one will be the script to end all major revisions. I'll keep you posted :) (Addendum: See the downloads section for the new script and addons, plus updates! See. Told you I'd keep you posted.)
