Upgrading chat servers, new IPs

So, what are the new IPs? Can we connect to them already, and will they be connected/synced with the older servers while those are taken down?

Using chat_properties and shooting off tens of thousands of requests for every channel you want to join is not an option.

I also assume you’re not separating a channel to a specific server, like the horrible system on JTV, and giving us 24 hour notice with a forum post? Cause that’d be bad.
