Revision as of 10:45, 25 October 2011

DareNET's development team is dedicated to maintaining the software that's running on the IRC network and its web properties, which includes IRC server daemons, IRC services, a webchat client and the DareNET website. The team can be reached via email at dev@darenet.org or in #dev on the network.

News

There is currently no news at this time.

Projects

The development team is responsible for developing and maintaining the following projects:

ircd-darenet

ircd-darenet is a fork of Nefarious IRCu, which itself is a fork of Undernet's ircu. In addition to these two ircds, ircd-darenet also contains code from Quakenet's snircd.

Development has begun on ircd-darenet 2, which is a fork of Undernet's ircu 2.10.12 branch. The goal being to re-implement those features we have come to know and love in ircd-darenet 1.x on top of a more modern code base, while leaving behind a lot of stuff found in Nefarious IRCu that we do not utilize. The end result hopefully being a leaner, more efficient ircd.

services-darenet

services-darenet is a fork of the popular X3 IRC services package, which itself is a fork of srvx, but also includes features unique to DareNET.

webchat-darenet

webchat-darenet is simply the code name we've given to our series of patches for the popular qwebirc client, most of which have now been incorporated upstream. Those which haven't can also be found here. Much thanks to Chris Porter (slug) for developing this great client, and freely releasing it.

website-darenet

The current site is built upon the Joomla framework (though a complete rewrite is underway), and boasts a wide variety of custom components, modules, and applications. It is integrated with the IRC network, which presently allows individuals to register a NickServ account, which can then be used to build a user profile, post to the forums, create social groups, upload pictures, chat on IRC and more.

The site is programmed in PHP (with portions of it being programmed in Python), and uses MySQL as its database backend.

FAQ

Where can I download projects?

Most of our patches to qwebirc can be found here.

While we do plan to eventually release ircd-darenet and services-darenet, your patience is required until it happens. In the mean time, we recommend taking a look at Nefarious IRCu, X3, snircd or srvx, for IRC daemons and services with comparable feature sets.

I found a bug, where can I report it?

Please send any bug reports to dev@darenet.org. We can also be reached in #dev on the network.
