+II.2 Enhanced Server Handshake
+
+The "enhanced server handshake" is used when both servers support this IRC+
+extension, which is indicated by the 'H' flag in the <serverflags> sent with
+the PASS command, see section II.1.
+
+It basically means, that after exchanging the PASS and SERVER commands the
+server is not registered in the network (as usual), but that IRC numerics
+are exchanged until the numeric 376 (ENDOFMOTD) is received. Afterwards the
+peer is registered in the network as with the regular IRC protocol.
+
+A server implementing the enhanced server handshake (and indicating this
+using 'H' in the <serverflags>) MUST ignore all unknown numerics to it
+silently.
+
+In addition, such a server should at least send the numeric 005 (ISUPPORT)
+to its peer, containing the following information. Syntax: <key>=<value>,
+one token per IRC parameter. If the server has to send more than 12 token
+it must send separate ISUPPORT numerics (this is a limitation of the IRC
+protocol which allows at max 15 arguments per command).
+
+ - NICKLEN: Maximum nickname length. Default: 9.
+ - CASEMAPPING: Case mapping used for nick- and channel name comparing.
+ Default: "ascii", the chars [a-z] are lowercase of [A-Z].
+ - PREFIX: List of channel modes a person can get and the respective prefix
+ a channel or nickname will get in case the person has it. The order of the
+ modes goes from most powerful to least powerful. Default: "(ov)@+"
+ - CHANTYPES: Supported channel prefixes. Default: "#".
+ - CHANMODES: List of channel modes for 4 types, separated by comma (","):
+ Mode that adds or removes a nick or address to a list, mode that changes
+ a setting (both have always has a parameter), mode that changes a setting
+ and only has a parameter when set, and mode that changes a setting and
+ never has a parameter. For example "bI,k,l,imnPst".
+ - CHANLIMIT: Maximum number of channels allowed to join by channel prefix,
+ for example "#:10".
+
+Please see <http://www.irc.org/tech_docs/005.html> for details.
+
+The information exchanged using ISUPPORT can be used to detect configuration
+incompatibilities (different maximum nick name length, for example) and
+therefore to disconnect the peer prior to registering it in the network.
+
+
+II.3 Exchange channel-modes, topics, and persistent channels
+
+ Command: CHANINFO
+ Parameters: <channel> +<modes> <key> <limit> [<topic>]
+ Used by: servers only
+
+CHANINFO is used by servers to inform each other about a channel: its
+modes, channel key, user limits and its topic. <topic> is optional.
+
+If the channel already exists on the server receiving the CHANINFO command,
+it only adopts the <modes> (or the <topic>) if there are no modes (or topic)
+already set. It there are already values set the server ignores the
+corresponding parameter.
+
+If the channel doesn't exists at all it will be created.
+
+The parameter <key> must be ignored if a channel has no key (the parameter
+<modes> doesn't list the "k" channel mode). In this case <key> should
+contain "*" because the parameter <key> is required by the CHANINFO syntax
+and therefore can't be omitted. The parameter <limit> must be ignored when
+a channel has no user limit (the parameter <modes> doesn't list the "l"
+channel mode). In this case <limit> should be "0".
