Re: Pattern/s sought

I'm developing a chat client and I'm looking for the right pattern
for the object/s that handle the messages between the client and
server. The users can participate in several chats at once. You can
think of it as an IRC client basically.

I'm currently looking at the Proxy and Chain of Responsibility
patterns, but I'm not sure if I'm on the right track here.

Can anyone give some assistance please?

Oh, BTW the client is implemented in Java, so if there are any other
important classes of mention, please feel free do do so.

You might want to look into Jini (http://www.jini.org) and, in
particular, JavaSpaces. Using a JavaSpace as a shared blackboard is a
basic pattern of the technology.
