Family IRC server
// My small, family IRC server
//
// This file won't compile by itself because it's only one file from
// my larger family server (movie hosting, Asterisk dialplan, Git
// hosting, personal assistant, etc).
//
// Users authenticate via NICK and PASS. The USER is interpreted as a
// "device" name. That allows each user to connect from multiple
// devices simultaneously while still appearing as only one nick in
// channels. Each nick-device combo has a queue of messages which
// have not yet been delivered. This allows users to disconnect and
// receive their messages when they reconnect.
//
// IRC doesn't have a built in ACK mechanism, so we fake it with PING
// messages. After each PRIVMSG, we send a PING which identifies the
// previous PRIVMSG. Since TCP guarantees in-order arrival, if we
// receive the PONG, we know the client recieved the message too.
// It's a hack, but it allows messages to be queued when users are
// offline.
//
// This file doesn't include the code for our SMS gateway or our
// family IRC bot.
