This project is incomplete and very far from ready for production networks, even small ones. There are gobs of critical bugs and missing features that will be cleared up for the 0.1 release, but until then, this software should not be used for anything but testing the software.

A next-generation replacement for charybdis.

Because it's fun, and I want to finish an IRCD some day just to say I did.

There is no official ircd-micro support, but you can make progress by bugging irc.interlinked.me #code

If this source has been obtained via git, the following command should be run first:

$ git submodule update --init

You will need to run git submodule update for each successive pull. ircd-micro can be then compiled and installed using the typical sequence:

$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install

By default, ircd-micro will be installed into ~/ircd, but this can be changed with the --prefix argument to ./configure.

Invoke micro with -h to get a list of options. By default, configuration goes in etc/micro.conf relative to the current directiory. An example configuration file can be found in doc/micro.conf.example

The following people have contributed to ircd-micro in various large capacities over the project's lifetime, and the product would not be the same without their additions:

• Hugo Landau (sam` ) -- Added in-flight upgrade system (/upgrade)
• Aaron Jones (Aaron) -- Added IPv6 support and operator CHALLENGE functionality.
• William Pitcock (kaniini) -- Redid configuration system to use the libmowgli-2 configuration parser.
• Elizabeth Myers (Elizafox) -- Added help system, rate limiting, and a few client protocol commands.

In addition, the following people have made contributions as well:

• Andrew Wilcox (awilcox)
• Rylee Fowler (Rylee)
• Lee Starnes (lstarnes)
• Jessica Williams (Quora)
• Sam Dodrill (Xe)
• ShadowNinja
