+ This package provides ngIRCd, a lightweight Internet Relay Chat
+ server for small or private networks. It is simple to configure, can
+ cope with dynamic IP addresses, and supports IPv6 as well as SSL. It
+ is written from scratch, not based on the original IRCd and quite
+ portable.

  This package contains the "standard distribution", including support for
  syslog logging and compressed server-links using zlib. Please have a look
  at the "ngircd-full" package if you need advanced functionality like support
  for IPv6 or SSL.
