What is IRC? IRC stands for Internet Relay Chat. Thousands of people use it, and its a good source for information on just about anything. There are several different enities EFNet, Dalnet and Undernet and many more. What's in a name? EFNet, Undernet (Excerpt from The Internet Complete Reference 2nd Edition by Harley Hahn)
"The history of IRC is filled with agreements, disagreements, alliances, break-ups
and intrigue (sort of like Lord of the Rings on speed). In 1990 the people who programed and
administered the various IRC servers had fundamental disagreements over how to expand the network. One group wanted to use a central IRC server named eris.berkeley.edu to which all the IRC servers in the U.S. would connect. They also proposed similar central servers for Europe and other parts of the world. A second group of people wanted to use a non-centralized "backbone" of servers.
The differences proved to be irreconcilable and the server eris.berkeley.edu was banished from the network. (In IRC terms, the server was "q-lined; the "q" stands for "quarantine".) The people who were pushing for the centralized system rallied behind eris.berkeley.edu and formed their own smaller network named A-net (Anarchy network). Other servers were moved
to A-net, effectively splitting the global IRC network into two parts.
Within a short time, the remainder of the original network came to be known as the "Eris-Free Network" or EFNet. Thus, the name EFNet actually means "the network that is free from the eris.berkeley.edu server".
In the next few years, the EFNet expanded rapidly while the A-net died. Today, there are many IRC networks, but EFNet is still the largest. The next largest is Undernet, developed as an alternate network. The neme Undernet was originally chosen to refer to an "underworld net", hidden from the main IRC network.
Ironically, Undernet is considered to be a consevative, well-managed network compared to today's EFNet, which still retains some of the anarchy of early IRC."
