Hello, I've modified a bit the source code of ngircd to let the IRC operators to bypass the +x and +i mode, so the commands who, whois, whowas, userhost and list will show the invisible and host masked users and invisible channels. I made it in my network to prevent abuse. However, before releasing the modification, I would like to ask: is that forbidden by the ngircd philosophy? If not, can someone please tell me how to release a patch, so everyone could also use this features? Thanks : )

Hrm, we could always make this configureable, and then show w arning during client connect (i.e., something like 'IRC operators can un-do your host masking) or something like that.

Simples method is to submit it as patch to the mailing list; in the perfect case we can just do a 'git am' on the email and apply your patch. Thanks, Florian
