Au contraire, they've just released a new version complete with full MySQL support.
Sadly they don't support hybrid.

blitzed.org - its their own fork of ircservices AFAIK designed for their version of bahamut.
Personally, I currently use a version of anope, with modules added to hybrid to fully support services & stuff added to anope to support those commands & various stuff ripped out that we don't need.
Used epona before that & auspice before epona (before we changed to hybrid) |

| We have been very impressed with X3 and Nefarious IRCu. The srvx foundation for X3 is extremely efficient, and the additions and modifications that the Evilnet crew have put into X3 are very nice. |

I'd be interested as to what those are, as I'm one of the developers.
(sidenote: 3.2 is now open for dev, one planned feature is sticky +eI lists, hooray.) |

after fiddling around some with atheme, I actually quite like some of the features it provides. As it happens, I'm currently planning a network of my own (financial resources permitting) complete with web front-end that integrate with services in a real-time manner, and I am seriously considering using atheme to accomplish the task.
Cudos to the devs  |

I agree with a few others, atheme has some fairly nice features, but, in all, not my cup of tea. Personally, I prefer X3. A complete, yet powerful package for P10-based ircds. I'm currently working on something like srvx's mod-qserver, among a few other things, for X3 to help facilitate real-time web-integration.

| atheme is one of the best irc services packages i've seen to hand, infact the ability to get rid of nickserv to some point (yes i know userserv is a stripped down nickserv) makes it a nice addition to those networks that just want a basic auth system with a channel service. |

I agree X3 is a pretty darn powerful package, and hell, if you know what you're doing, without modifying the source, you can set it up to run as a single bot services. Or even just a small number of bots like just OperServ and X3
As for non-P10 IRCd's, I prefer Anope. |

Based on the services packages I've run on my test servers, I have to say Anope seems to be about the most useful. Active modules community, active forum community - these are dealmakers.
And it may sound fickle, but HostServ is tremendously popular with users. As are several of the modules available for Anope. For an "out of the box" network with intent to grow into something bigger, better, and eventually at the very least heavily customized, Anope is a great way to show your users what you -will- be giving them in the future.
It's also well worth looking at the IRC services package comparison article on Wikipedia - just glancing at this shows that Anope is typically more feature-rich (and it's widespread use is proof of general stability, AFAIC). If you can't find said article, er, you're going to have problems running a network anyway...
And as a sidenote...
I hate to say it (except I don't, really), but if you can't code, and none of your staff can code, you probably shouldn't be running an IRC network. |
