II. Status
~~~~~~~~~~~
At present, the ngIRCd is under active development, some features are not
implemented, some only partly.
It is not the goal of ngIRCd to implement all the nasty behaviours of the
original ircd, but to implement most of the useful commands and semantics
specified by the RFCs.
Till today (more or less complete) implemented IRC-commands:
In the meantime ngIRCd should be quite feature complete and stable to be
used in real IRC networks.
Implemented IRC-commands are:
ADMIN, AWAY, CHANINFO, CONNECT, DIE, DISCONNECT, ERROR, HELP, INVITE, ISON,
JOIN, KICK, KILL, LINKS, LIST, LUSERS, MODE, MOTD, NAMES, NICK, NJOIN,
NOTICE, OPER, PART, PASS, PING, PONG, PRIVMSG, QUIT, REHASH, RESTART, SERVER,
SQUIT, STATS, TIME, TOPIC, TRACE, USER, USERHOST, VERSION, WHO, WHOIS.
