* Why SILC? (enc and auth traffic, new design -> advantages, why an irc-SSL layer isn't the way to do it...)
* Short history of SILC
** How it begun
** Status of the project
* Technical intro to the protocol
** based on the white paper
** A few things that are designed better compared to IRC
*** Nicks/Clients
**** SILC: not unique, unique Client ID; identicated by public key (no nick services needed); attributes and present modes
**** IRC: unique; authenticated by password/host mask (nick services needed); userinfo through service, away only
*** Channels
**** SILC: unique; founder mode (no channel services needed); channel public keys possible
**** IRC: unique; channel services needed for registration;
*** Messages/File transfer
**** SILC: all messages encrypted; all messages pass server; messages can be sign; multimedia messages possible; SFTP mandatory, other file transfer protocols possible
**** IRC: all messages are unencrypted, ctcp/dcc for e2e communication and file transfer
** How it works using the silc-client
*** Show a few things:
**** Chat (found channel, what is founder, founder mode, save your key!)
