Just the one or 2... if you're using XML/text, I don't know much if
anything about XML, but if it's a text-format, you'd really need to keep
Nick/Chan passwords secure by maybe forcing encryption because on your
current DB's you can't directly read them in a 
text-editor and get passwords easily.  I am guessing with Text DB's it'd be
a piece of cake but don't quote me on this.  Altho this issue does NOT have
much to do with IRC-Services project and is down to the system where
IRC-Services sits, it's a concern I thought I'd bring up.

I'm probably being dumb for not knowing what XML is, so please enlighten me
here.
