ShadowIRCd project releases 6.1.0

Monday, April 12th, 2010

The ShadowIRCd project just released version 6.1.0 of their Charybdis-based IRCd, just little over a month after the release of version 6.0.0.

The new release adds a few new features, configuration options and “massive helpfile updates”.

The developer team implemented a server-side /CYCLE (also called /HOP in some clients) command which parts and rejoins the user from the channel he specifies.

A lot of management-commands like those pertaining to modules (like MODLOAD) can now be executed remotely, remote stopping or restarting the IRCd through DIE and RESTART has been introduced as well.

ShadowIRCd 6.0.0 released

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

ShadowIRCd, a project that died off in 2004, has been revived and is now based on the charybdis IRCd.

The IRCd, formerly based on IRCd-Hybrid, brings a whole lot of features and enhancements that can be considered useful for opers and users alike.

New features include lots of user & channel modes like the implementation of usermode +C (blocks CTCPs) and +G which prevents users from messaging you “unless you’re both on at least one channel together”. Usermode +V prevents users from getting invites from others, to which coder jdhore says that “as far as I’m aware no other IRCd has”.
