FreeQuest Coders

Since ircd-hybrid lacked support of CGI:IRC, we ported the m_webirc.c from ircd-ratbox to ircd-hybrid. It is quite untested, but atleast it works. There were some old m_webirc.c floating around for ircd-hybrid, but it didn’t compile with version 7.2.3.

Make sure you read the instructions on the top of the file before you compile it.

Also, Mark is in the progress of trying to get our services package to work with ircd-hybrid, but since it is only TS3 and ircd-hybrid uses TS6 it will need major rewrite of services (and perhaps ircd-hybrid aswell).

We’ll keep you posted!

Hi again!

We soon will begin testing of ircd-hybrid! The main reason for this is that Bahamut development seems to have stalled, and our development team hasn’t been very active lately, and we hope to benefit from the much more active development that hybrid has.
Another reason is that hybrid also has IPv6 support, which we have been struggling with for Bahamut.

If everything works out, we will try to modularize all FreeQuest specific functions and release them as modules for ircd-hybrid. We might need to supply patches aswell.

Comments and suggestions about this can be left in #FreeQuest, and all suggestions are much appreciated.
