44 | A better way is the introduction of an enforcer, which does not quit after | |
45 | 1 minute. Then people would need to release/ghost with the proper | |
46 | password, else the enforcer would persist. Still, there is a need of | |
47 | discovering passwrod crackers. | |
48 | ||
49 | But suspend is a very militant penalty. | |

60 | I would share this patch, but you have to keep in mind, that this is not a | |
61 | small thing. The authentication system I wrote consists of two additional | |
62 | information for each registered nickname. Combined with other features | |
63 | I've added, this information is written to another db, and loaded right | |
64 | after nick.db. In this case, the other information remains specific to my | |
65 | network, so you may think to include the auth information in the nick.db. | |
66 | But then, you will lose compatibility with the current services development, | |
67 | because Mr.Church does not need to support my extensions. And also, the | |
68 | mailing services are not added to services, yet. | |
69 | ||
70 | I would suggest waiting for a solution, must of us will accept. If you are | |
71 | still interested in my coding, I might provide you privately with the | |
72 | proper url, but keep in mind, that the source should be considered as | |
73 | beta. | |
