Will the IRCd sourcecode or other sourcecodes be available for download to the public?
The code base of the IRCd we're using can be downloaded on sourceforge.net. However, we have forked from it and modified it some to allow us to provide a better experience for our users. These modifications are not public and will most likely never be published. The same goes for our services.
