I2CB icbd -- the Improved ICB Server
------------------------------------
ICBD is an online chat system which allows a large number of users
to participate in realtime online discussions. Among the features
of the ICB chat system are:
* Simple, fast protocol and efficient polling-based implementation
minimize `lag' effects
* Persistent user database allows authentication of nicknames,
storage of various user information, and leaving messages for
users who are not logged on at the moment.
* Any user may create groups, and exercise control over those
groups, allowing for a wide range of discussion styles. This
control includes making groups public or private, visible or
invisible, and moderated or unmoderated
* The fabulous, famous '/brick' command lends true interactivity
to the chat experience :-)
ICB (International CB) is a teleconferencing system that allows Internet users
to participate in realtime online discussions. This package builds a client
program (called, strangely enough, "icb") that is used to access ICB.
i2cb was enhanced to support IPv6 etc.
defeating that purpose, use control c to pop up the colour picker
instead. I'm not sure exactly when the gaim people changed this
(somewhere between 0.59.1 and 0.59.3), but I think it's rather ill
advised.
Navi2ch is a viewer program dedicated to chatting in 2ch.net - the biggest,
most famous, influencial BBS in Japan.
Although this software is really well-written, It's worth noting that most
opinions/informations found in 2ch.net are next to senseless. Thus, Good
NetBSD users are really encouraged not to devote themselves to 2ch! :-)
Some of the changes:
o More small bugs quashed. New /clearall command.
o Small bugs quashed in buddy offline acknowledgement and
queued message forwarding.
o Speed-ups in the playback procedures.
o General clean-ups for cross-platform compiles.
o On Tuesday, October 1, AOL's TOC servers began
periodically sending packets with a previously unused
frame type. naim does not know how to decipher these
packets, but version 0.11.4 was released with code
changes to simply ignore unknown frame types.
- update maintainer email

0.59.3 (09/14/2002):
Rob: This really has been made a little early. Of course, we figured
that some of you may like to connect to Yahoo. Sorry about that
little blunder. I blame it on George.
Sean: That was just a silly mistake--there's no need to make George
feel bad! There's also some nice i18n fixes in there by Matt Wilson
from RedHat.
George: Why doesn't anybody love me?
0.59.2 (09/09/2002):
Rob: This time Sean couldn't be with us. I finally got my linux box
some what back in order. Life has been extremely hectic for both Sean
and myself lately, I think. Sean will have his cable connection soon
and my linux box should be completely happy again soon. Thanks to
everyone that kept the patches coming in and organized while we
were busy (chip, luke, robot, etc.)
