I'd be worried that the chatroom would be filled with words that are not (ahem) in keeping with the christmas spirit!

I did spend some time thinking about how to let people leave "gifts" over folks could open, but wasn't sure how to make that work in a compelling way. Maybe next year...

If going that route perhaps code could be borrowed from Devzat [1] not my repo

It is ssh chat and has word filters.
