I think - from the view of a network analyst - it is not
too good if we all use the greek irc-server. I would suggest,
that everyone uses the irc-server next to his home. The only
problem is, that the channels of GR-net aren't exported 
worldwide. So I would suggest the following procedure:

- Use your local irc-server, if possible.
- If it doesn't export groups worldwide (like thales.math.auth.gr)
  use irc.uni-stuttgart.de instead.

Hope that's ok for you. I don't want to force anyone to use
"my" server, but from the view of network topology it is better,
if everyone uses a server located next to himselves.

Greets
