  34 <PRE>Just a suggestion:
  35 in my server, I had disabled the DROP and SET FOUNDER commands. To use this
  36 command you need to be an IRCop.
  37 This simple change dont let users to stole channels from another users.
  38 They can even stole de password, but the channel's INFO allways will show
  39 the nickname of real founder. If someone, ask for a password or something
  40 relative, you only need to look at channel INFO.

  49 </I>&gt;<i>If you're going to add features to ircservices, especially if you intend
  50 </I>&gt;<i>(or atleast, would like) your features to be incorporated into newer
  51 </I>&gt;<i>releases, you MUST make sure ALL your code changes will accomodate ALL
  52 </I>&gt;<i>supported IRCds.
  53 </I>&gt;<i>
  54 </I>&gt;<i>The way Andy originally coded services makes this quite easier... you have
  55 </I>&gt;<i>a number of compile-time directives which compile in the appropriate code
  56 </I>&gt;<i>based on the ircd selected at configuration.
  57 </I>&gt;<i>
  58 </I>&gt;<i>For example:
  59 </I>&gt;<i>
  60 </I>&gt;<i>     #ifdef IRC_DAL4_4_15
  61 </I>&gt;<i>             ... code ...
  62 </I>&gt;<i>     #endif
  63 </I>&gt;<i>
  64 </I>&gt;<i>The expressions available are:
  65 </I>&gt;<i>
  66 </I>&gt;<i>     IRC_DALNET, IRC_DAL4_4_15, IRC_CLASSIC,
  67 </I>&gt;<i>     IRC_UNDERNET_NEW, IRC_TS8, IRC_UNDERNET,
  68 </I>&gt;<i>
  69 </I>&gt;<i>Don't suppose anyone is bored and would like to outline the differences
  70 </I>&gt;<i>between these IRCds?  Maybe add it to a programming FAQ for services which
  71 </I>&gt;<i>another bored person could make?
  72 </I>&gt;<i>
  73 </I>&gt;<i>Lastly, I agree with the need for an additional list for the CODING of
  74 </I>&gt;<i>ircservices.  Feature suggestions and things help requests are fine for a
  75 </I>&gt;<i>normal list, but I think a place where people could discuss implementation
  76 </I>&gt;<i>of certain things and what they break, how to fix these things, etc, would
  77 </I>&gt;<i>be constructive.
