... is anyone here familiar enough with IRC daemons to recommend one? I'd like to set a server up, but there are several different daemons about, and some of them seem to be poorly documented, if at all...

UnrealIRCd seems to be what most of our UkShells users use (although its a bit of a pig to setup - but it IS well documented). www.unrealircd.com or similar. Its on sourceforge in any case. One tip though, if you are expecting more than 250 simultaneous users, make sure you do compile and ulimit approproriately.
