Since I've been a bit lax in working on my own chat recently (which won't be publicly available), I thought I'd spend some time on significantly altering the voodoo chat engine to incorporate a number of extra features.
Hopefully it'd be possible for those with the knowledge on how to set up the voodoo chat (available from vochat.com) to run a more fully-featured version with the alterations I've made. So far it would only run using the shared-memory version of the engine but I hope to make the alterations for it to run using files fairly swiftly. SQL might take a bit longer.
Admittedly there are still a couple of small problems that need looking at (like the long time before someone gets logged out of the chat) but all the changes I've made I'm making publicly available for people to use. If anyone has any queries, feel free to contact me in some way (AIM as feathowl, also e-mail at gmail.com with the same name) I'll also continue to work on adding a couple of extra features, which not being overly familiar with Javascript, I'm hoping someone else might be able to supply.
For those interested in previewing the changes, you should be able to use the functional chat at: http://owlsfeathers.demon.co.uk:9090/chat
Here's the full zip of the whole chat

This is zipped 'as-is' and as a result needs a bit of tidying up if someone wishes to use it directly (such as deleting existing registered users)
