34 | <PRE> Just a quick response to this before I head off to work: | |

36 | ><i>1. MultiCast Networking for IRC Networks & Services: | |
37 | </I>><i>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
38 | </I> | |
39 | While an interesting idea, the biggest problem is that IRC servers | |
40 | don't support it, and unless you personally want to update every server | |
41 | in existence that probably won't change anytime soon. There would also | |
42 | be the problem of obtaining a multicast IP for the network (I admit I'm | |
43 | not up on what that process entails). | |
44 | ||
45 | ><i>2. IPv6 Support for IRC Networks & Services: | |
46 | </I>><i>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
47 | </I> | |
48 | I'm in agreement about this one, though I think it's a fairly low | |
49 | priority at this point. | |
50 | ||
51 | ><i>3. SQL DataBase Support for IRC Services: | |
52 | </I>><i>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
53 | </I> | |
54 | As someone else pointed out, this would involve a significant | |
55 | rewrite for a comparatively small improvement. Moreover, using SQL | |
56 | could actually hurt performance due to the overhead of SQL calls, | |
57 | and would affect reliability due to the necessity of maintaining an | |
58 | additional proecss (the SQL server). | |
