An extension of the original new IRC bot plan, Arc should be able to connect to new servers via different protocols (a lá abstraction). Of course the regular IRC bot would be the main product of this, but InspIRCd, TS6 Generic and UnrealIRCd linking modules, as well as potentially a Jabber interface should be implemented.
There are plenty of examples of each of those protocols implemented on Github already (in python, no less!).

This shouldn't be considered a burning issue, but would definitely set Arc as being the leading Classic server software. (Imagine being able to run multi-network Minecraft servers that you can administrate via an IM client :D).
