Guys, thank you, but due to Michaels hostility towards non Amercians who
enjoy their privacy, and with no chance of SSL in ircu, we took our vote a
few hours ago, and at UTC changed ircd's
Noel: I know for a fact that Mirc has SSL enabled, as does ChatZilla, one
of our admins has said there is

I'm pretty much on the same page as Kev with the solution: implement a
connection stack with configurable modules and then implement an encryption
module. As Kev said, it would actually be nice for us to have that ability
for other things. I also agree with his caveat, that we simply don't have
any
I've been holding my tongue on this, because Michael's been stating the
very logic that I have stated in the past; however, my views have been
changing somewhat, and I think there are ways to approach this that can
at least partially satisfy all parties.
The first thing I want to be clear about is

Just so people are not left wondering, I have better ways to spend my
time than to debunk emails that are driven by emotion and ignorance of
the subject matter(s) at hand.

I would have thought privacy would be compelling enough?
What about those other servers out there that are standalon
Unless someone presents more compelling arguments in favor of the
idea, I do not expect to add SSL support to ircu.
On the networking side of things, it does little to protect users from
the kind of surveillance you describe: If an adversary is recording
metadata, they will get substantively the s
Nefarious IRCu supports SSL already. I forgot where the SSL support
originally came from (I remember something about a partially-working
patch that was modified to work well). If ircu wants to add SSL support,
should be pretty easy to take the relevant code from Nefarious.

Implementing SSL shouldn't be too hard technically, the socket
connection layer in ircu is pretty well encapsulated or it was at one
time (it's been a while since I worked on the code). It'll burn some CPU
but that may or may not be an issue. Sounds like an interesting and fun

Hi there,
Searching Google shows an old but very short thread about SSL on ircu which
did not have any answer, so in light of recent word wide outrage against
the united states govt and its nsa with prism, and uk's gchq's similar
program, I was hoping to revive this feature request with a view to
