Alexander Barton d38d153f51 Streamline punctuation of log messages 
Make sure that all log messages end with a correct punctuation mark.

The rules for formatting log messages are:

 1. Add punctuation marks to all messages passed to the actual logging
    functions like Log() and LogDebug().
 2. Don't add any punctuation marks to messages that are stored in
    variables for later use or are passed over the network.
 3. IP addresses, DNS host names and IRC server names should be quoted.
 4. Messages originating in the network should be quoted (at least if
    they are "untrusted" or variable).

Most probably this patch doesn't fix all mistakes, but it should be a
good starting point ...

                     ngIRCd - Next Generation IRC Server
                           http://ngircd.barton.de/

               (c)2001-2013 Alexander Barton and Contributors.
               ngIRCd is free software and published under the
                   terms of the GNU General Public License.

                                -- README --


I. Introduction
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

ngIRCd is a free, portable and lightweight Internet Relay Chat server for
small or private networks, developed under the GNU General Public License
(GPL; please see the file COPYING for details). It is simple to configure,
can cope with dynamic IP addresses, and supports IPv6 as well as SSL. It is
written from scratch and not based on the original IRCd.

The name ngIRCd means next generation IRC daemon, which is a little bit
exaggerated: lightweight Internet Relay Chat server most probably would be a
better name :-)

Please see the INSTALL document for installation and upgrade information!


II. Status
~~~~~~~~~~~

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.

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, GLINE, HELP, INFO,
INVITE, ISON, JOIN, KICK, KILL, KLINE, LINKS, LIST, LUSERS, MODE, MOTD,
NAMES, NICK, NJOIN, NOTICE, OPER, PART, PASS, PING, PONG, PRIVMSG, QUIT,
REHASH, RESTART, SERVER, SERVICE, SERVLIST, SQUERY, SQUIT, STATS, SUMMON,
TIME, TOPIC, TRACE, USER, USERHOST, USERS, VERSION, WALLOPS, WEBIRC, WHO,
WHOIS, WHOWAS.

III. Features (or: why use ngIRCd?)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

- well arranged (lean) configuration file
- simple to build/install, configure and maintain
- supports IPv6 and SSL
- no problems with servers that have dynamic IP addresses
- freely available, modern, portable and tidy C-source
- wide field of supported platforms, including AIX, A/UX, FreeBSD, HP-UX,
  IRIX, Linux, Mac OS X, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris, and Windows with Cygwin.
- ngIRCd is being actively developed since 2001.
