Add a web chat interface ?

Description

As more and more people become interested in real-time chatting with developers and tend get enchained in proprietary chat system solutions, it might be useful to give them an easy way to find the open place in which we meet daily (Freenode IRC network).

What would you think about a chat.osgeo.org webpage serving a web IRC client ? An instance of something like https://kiwiirc.com/ could be a good start, branded for OSGeo and maybe having per-project entry points, to integrate with trac (a "chat" tab).

matrix.org seems to have fixed the problem. It now also supports "tematical channels" so we can use http://matrix.to/#/+osgeo:matrix.org - To me we can close this ticket as "fixed upstream", although it would be nice to expose Riot.im on osgeo machines (it's just javascript component)

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
