-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.
-
