Not "a compatibility layer to +IRC", just IRC. Most of "modern" functionalities are available via the "modern" +option which implements IRCv3 plus a couple of extensions, and there's also a +"classic" ircd option with traditional RFC 1459 capabilities which serves as a +replacement to other traditional ircd implementations. |
