I'm the developer of AndChat and am working on getting AndChat optimized for Honeycomb. I'm looking for users willing to download the beta and give feedback for things like UI issues, Honeycomb specific bugs, crashes, etc.

The beta is available here: http://www.andchat.net/beta

Screenshot (Full batch available here: http://www.andchat.net/beta/honeycomb)

Installed on my Xoom. Works well, would like to be able to see the list of people in the channel on the right hand side when in landscape mode instead of in its own window. Will live without that feature :) Will report any specific bugs that I can see, none so far.

The view used to display the text (TextView) doesn't support c&p which is a huge shame. DCC support isn't implemented AndChat.

Aye, userlist on the side is something I plan to add. I need to get my head around Fragments API first :confused:

I will test, I use it on my fascinate.

Thanks for testing and the feedback so far. The 1 apk is for phone & tablet so if you install it on your phone and notice anything funky, let me know.

I downloaded the android SDK a while back so I updated it and started looking into the new API and stuff. The framework you are talking about to put the people list on the side doesn't sound too scary :)

Waiting for some books to hit the shelves before I start tinkering around :)

I've published the first version with support of Android 3.0. Available on the Market and AndChat website.

I've had a look at some example code and you're right, it isn't too bad. I will work to make it even more compatible with Honeycomb in the future.

Been using for a few days and has been working flawlessly. I would like to see an option to have users in the channel on the right side like PC programs. there is enough screen width to do this without sacrificing the chat.

Also it might be me but I could not find a way to auto login to a channel.

Oh, I definitely plan on adding that. Here is a screenshot of the progress so far:

It's very buggy and crashy in its current state, developing on the slow emulator is a huge pain :eek:

Add the channel names to autojoin channels part of the add/edit screen.

I'm new to AndChat and it's quickly becoming my favorite IRC client. How does one auto-join multiple channels on that one-liner? Do we separate by commas or just space? I currently use the auto execute line and add /join for each channel.
