Web based IRC for the Arch Linux channel

Would it be possible for someone to set up the Arch linux IRC channel to be viewable on a Firefox webpage in the same way the Frugalware guys do?

http://frugalware.org/irc.php

It could be really useful to those not familiar with IRC.  And it doesn't look that hard to do

A link could then be put on the home page to get there quickly.

CGI:IRC is really practical, if you are on-the-road (= not on your machine) but want to inform some people over chat on something important

i had it running in an earlier version on my old machine to chat with my family when on holidays ... but the installation was pain ... however, i see that this piece of code evolved much and looks really great now

i don't decide for archlinux.org but you have my vote ;-)
