Are you completely dropping support for all other IRCD's!?

If so, this sounds rather presumptuous.  Several people still use the older
daemons for many reasons, not to say the least are for efficiency and
"ethic"
reasons.  (Some people view forcively changing a user's mode and/or nick to
be wrong)

For my own reasons, this is going to make things harder on my part with the
designs of the IRCD that I've been working on for sometime.  I'll not have
a familiar starting ground on which to make my daemon compatible with
services.
That being the original server to server negotiations as outlined in RFC
1459.
Bahamut and DreamForge use a modified version there of.

Further more, you'll be shutting everyone out, not everyone is going to want
to
change their server (let alone their whole network) over to Bahamut.  Last I
had
a Bahamut/DF mix on my network it caused some major stability problems.

I urge you to please reconsider your decision in this matter.

Thank you,
