You can't.

This would allow users to then look for exploitable versions and mess up networks.

Jason, really this is a load of bull. What's to stop someone creating a bot similar to scrawl, connect it to all the networks and catch the 005 numeric?

That's all it takes!

Most networks are all too eager to give their address out.
Then, I suppose a /map or /links to get attached servers... or even just remote /versions...

This is all theoretical, naturally. I have never actually done any of this.

If Jason says he's not going to list nets by IRCd type ... then it's not getting done.

This topic has surfaced more than a few times ... several Netadmins like myself have expressed a dislike for the idea and to date it has not been done. In fact, if this was ever done .. I'd pull my listing off SIRC.

As been said before, this is not something a normal user would need nor want.
