Hey, I am the Guillaume. :)

In fact I don't really have a strong idea of what I will do.
I wanted to port xchat-gnome to drop the crap xchat's engine and rewrite
it using telepathy.
Xavier suggested me to rather consider to improve IRC/chatrooms in
Gossip using pieces of xchat-gnome.
I'm not sure yet what's the best approach (a new IRC client based on TL
or all in Gossip). Anyway, I started to work on common parts of these 2
solutions. So I'm writing a new gossip-account-widget-irc that we could
extract from Gossip and use for any GNOME telepathy client.
