    At least 99% of the traffic on php-general is unrelated to IRCG.

    I think the above sentence says enough about how to weight
    your whole email.

    IRCG is one of the best-maintained extensions at this time.
    For example, a user who is deploying PHP/IRCG for a huge
    gaming community mailed me a backtrace *privately*. He
    received the fix within 10 minutes.

    *BUT*:

    There is no definitive right for support for open-source
    software. There is no definitive right for assistance from
    anyone. All I can do is to provide you with pointers to
    available resources and answer emails whenever I can.

> Besides IRCG, there are more extensions that are very special

    IRCG is *not* special. Not more special than 90% of our
    extensions anyway. It works with all SAPIs, thttpd just
    happens to support a bit more functionality. It provides
    convenient functions for anyone writing software which is
    related to IRC (there are at least a dozen other PHP-based
    web-chats which can use it).
