34<PRE>In a big network, this may be a problem. My server have +- 5000 users, and
35by removing this two features, we could reduce the problem of stealling
36channels.
37I just wrote this experiment here, because it may be usefull to someone
38with this problems.

64</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Just a suggestion:
65</I>&gt;&gt;<i> in my server, I had disabled the DROP and SET FOUNDER commands. To use
66</I>&gt;<i>this
67</I>&gt;&gt;<i> command you need to be an IRCop.
68</I>&gt;&gt;<i> This simple change dont let users to stole channels from another users.
69</I>&gt;&gt;<i> They can even stole de password, but the channel's INFO allways will show
70</I>&gt;&gt;<i> the nickname of real founder. If someone, ask for a password or something
71</I>&gt;&gt;<i> relative, you only need to look at channel INFO.

78</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;This is just a quickie based on what I read earlier.
79</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;
80</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;If you're going to add features to ircservices, especially if you intend
81</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;(or atleast, would like) your features to be incorporated into newer
82</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;releases, you MUST make sure ALL your code changes will accomodate ALL
83</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;supported IRCds.
84</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;
85</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;The way Andy originally coded services makes this quite easier... you
86</I>&gt;<i>have
87</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;a number of compile-time directives which compile in the appropriate
88</I>&gt;<i>code
89</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;based on the ircd selected at configuration.
90</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;
91</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;For example:
92</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;
93</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; #ifdef IRC_DAL4_4_15
94</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; ... code ...
95</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; #endif
96</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;
97</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;The expressions available are:
98</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;
99</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; IRC_DALNET, IRC_DAL4_4_15, IRC_CLASSIC,
100</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; IRC_UNDERNET_NEW, IRC_TS8, IRC_UNDERNET,
101</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;
102</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;Don't suppose anyone is bored and would like to outline the differences
103</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;between these IRCds? Maybe add it to a programming FAQ for services
104</I>&gt;<i>which
105</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;another bored person could make?
106</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;
107</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;Lastly, I agree with the need for an additional list for the CODING of
108</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;ircservices. Feature suggestions and things help requests are fine for
109</I>&gt;<i>a
110</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;normal list, but I think a place where people could discuss
111</I>&gt;<i>implementation
112</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;of certain things and what they break, how to fix these things, etc,
113</I>&gt;<i>would
114</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;be constructive.
