			:It's called '''Yui Chat''' - the developer's name is Yui, and it's a chat script. They made several other scripts around 1996-1997, such as Yui Board, Yui Post, Yui Note (ancestor of what we have on https://up.heyuri.net/), and Yui Vote (ancestor of what we're using on https://cgi.heyuri.net/vote2/). There were several different iterations of their website hosted in various places, including mirrors hosted by others. Examples:
