     Oh, was the message referring to the new RFCs?  I don't consider them
"standards" documents, though I have to admit it's nice they took the time
to actually document their modifications, unlike most other implementors.
(For those who were unaware, RFC1459, the original IRC specification, is
classed as an "experimental" protocol, so using the word "standard" to
refer to it is incorrect, but I think it's beyond question that RFC1459 is
more "standard" than the implementation of the day.)
