-       ngIRCd is a free open source server for Internet Relay Chat (IRC),

+       (<a href="doc/COPYING" hreflang="en">GPL</a>).
+       It is easy to configure, can cope with dynamic IP addresses, and
+       supports IPv6, SSL-protected connections as well as PAM for
+       authentication. It is written from scratch and not based on the
