IRC7 Project
About:
Created & Maintained by @jyonxo and @realJoshByrnes msnld is hosted by @realJoshByrnes irc7 is hosted by SkyCrest
This is the final iteration of a series of projects that began a few years before the close of MSN. The project has been contributed mainly by @jyonxo and @realJoshByrnes. The idea was to have a server that closely mimics what MSN Chat used to provide.
The project was initially created as a C# .NET Service but had undergone multiple iterations, it finally found its way to .NET Core which has gained a lot of traction in the industry and has multiple platform support so this can be targetted for Windows, Linux, MacOS etc.
The server is loosely based on a mixture of the following RFCs:
draft-pfenning-irc-extensions-04
Also our own data gathered during the time MSN Chat was operational, including eXonytes Realm & other sources
Current project state:
IRC7 uses .NET Core 6.0 and is compiled in VS 2022
Apologies as this is currently in early development so:
- Codebase is rough
- Not enough commenting
- Parts need re-writing/optimization
- Still WIP
