Package: wnpp

Owner: Dominic Hargreaves <dom@earth.li>

* Package name    : hybserv
  Version         : 1.9.2

* URL             : http://sourceforge.net/projects/hybserv2/

  Description     : IRC services for IRCD-Hybrid

HybServ is a daemon that connects to your IRCD-Hybrid server and
automagically provides nickname, channel, memo, and oper services to your
entire network if it is configured correctly to talk with your IRC server.

In short, these allow users to register nicknames and channels to prevent
EFnet-style takeovers thereof, allow opers to easily manage glines, klines,
and other server settings, and allow users with registered nicknames to
leave messages for others.

HybServ is the services package of choice on IRC networks such as Aniverse.

Note: this would be a reintroduction of the package which was removed
from testing and unstable earlier this year; please see
