hi,
as i connected to some efnet servers i saw a drone monitor ctcp version me. so my curiosity told me to ctcp version it back and i did. the reply was Dronemon version 1.5.0beta1 (20040212_1). i havent seen it on any websites and i was wondering if it was open source.
thanks,
alex

For more information on Dronemon, you can contact its author by messaging 'powuh' on EFNet.

Without revealing the inner "secrets" of dronemon, I can give you a short description of the capabilities of this daemon. As far as I know, the source and changelogs of this client is still an "opercircle only" thing.

In short terms, this bot can do:

- CTCP version matching and D/K-lining of specific matches (dronelike versions, or versions violation server rules)
- Matching of specific nick/ident/gecos patterns and D/K-lining the specific matches.
- Rapid connection warnings (example, 60 clients connecting in 10 seconds)

Some servers kline different CTCP replies depending on the rules of using the service (some serves allow iroffer bots, others dont, etc)

In other words, nothing fishy or scaring for people who aint got nothing to hide.

Cheers,

sealie

are there any plans for it to become open source?

Unfortunately that is not up to me to answer, you can always ask powuh via pm or msg on IRC.
