Lmao, dalnet?? Is there a *less* stable net? Even if you are connected, as much
as
they are DDoS'd and split, there is no telling if you get chanserv, or for that
matter, any
other server on the net! Why don't you let chanserv keep the topic and not worry
about
stability, cause there is no stability on the net, it's an illusion. Or go
shopping for a
better shell host.

On a good note, there is a conference in Oz on net connections, and a paper is
being
delivered by one of the originators of the XML "standard" (and author of several
massive
books) about something i pestered dalnet and sorcerynet on for years: an ircd
that
uses a hypercube topology and slave *servs in the ircd. Naturally, he will get
the credit
for continually bringing up the topic, not me. <sigh>
