  47 What makes you think all of the win32 IRC server software is

  58 Then you can compile it yourself.  Another point is, how many people
  59 who compile things from source in order to use them actually read the
  60 source first?
  61
  62 This is a pretty elemental argument; I don't think we need to rehash
  63 it here.

  80 I've worked with Windows in home, business, and small scale enterprise
  81 environments for the last 5 years, and from a low-key development
  82 perspective for the last 2.  Let me know when you have as much
