  41 Andy, I don't want to be rude or anything but why would anyone want to have
  42 a network where servers are connected in a circular fashion?  It would
  43 require additional bandwidth making the rule of thumb go up. :(  Not
  44 forgetting additional RAM required for the ircd to remember that it has
  45 various paths to send data to reach server x.
  46
  47 Currently the DALnet implementation of irc protocol is quite good, well
  48 actually the best comparing it to ircu, irce etc. etc.
  49
  50 Many IRC Networks are basing their ircd's on DALnet code! (Believe it or not).
