I find that very weird, as I can get SILC working from:
* a work network, which is heavily firewalled and proxied,
* a mobile phone using a heavily NATed 3G network
* my normal ISP using my Macbook.

On my macbook used the command line client provided with macports
for silc, which is very reliable. I find GUI client painfully
buggy. On other platforms, I use Pidgin's plugin.

That said, we really should switch away from SILC, as its obscure
and has poor client support, both of which are preventing people
from connecting. Is an XMPP server suitable for group chat? I
think most people can configure a Jabber client these days.

it.

Please switch to IRC.  I can't get SILC to work on my Macbook.

  That must be me but I didn't made the channel though I was
  autojoining
  since yesterday. SILC isn't that active, there are like 2-4
  different
  people popping in for most of the time but they usually
  discuss useful
  stuffs.


Well, I'm really interested in finding out the current state of
Etoile. The roadmap on the site does not seem to be that up to
date as of now, and asking around on IRC/SILC seemed to be the
best alternative for that, thats how I ended up replying to this
thread :)
