and you are being polemic again. give me numbers. network band-
width and increase of usage when a server uses gac.

and additionally: so what: this is ircnet we are speaking of. 
bandwith will be no problem in the future ... 

Don't think we are too stupid to see that changing server-code
is highly flamable. But ircd-development is a dead king on the
throne. And the country outside is fading away ...

So it's normal and in my eyes understandable that revolutions
occur ...

No excuse. Just diplomatic. I say we remove it when something
better comes. 

Do you mean I am weak because I did reply ?

Just take a breath an reread. I said: IRCNET-Patch. So I mean
