4.3 Channel Hosting And Management
A channel is a named group of one or more users which will all
receive messages addressed to that channel. A channel is
characterized by its name and current members, it also has a set of
properties which can be manipulated by (some of) its members.
Channels provide a mean for a message to be sent to several clients.
Servers host channels, providing the necessary message multiplexing.
Servers are also responsible for managing channels by keeping track
of the channel members. The exact role of servers is defined in
"Internet Relay Chat: Channel Management" [IRC-CHAN].
