This is more for experimented users, people who can add Xchat after the
installation. 

Btw, and just for the note, Ubuntu doesn't have Xchat by default :)

I'm agree that it's not a strategic decision. The work of Lubuntu devs
on Xchat and its integration is near to 0 :)

Space is important on the CD, because the installation process is
longer, and extra space can be replaced by langpack :)
