      When you get your address, compile for v6, and make the necessary
configuration changes to accommodate a v6 compile (padding all v4
addresses in the config with ::ffff:), let me know so I can add the v6
address to DNS.

      It is.  A few had requested the ability to join more than 15
channels and I couldn't really come up with a reason that they shouldn't
be able to, so I increased it on lion.  Others followed suit along the way.

      It's probably something that got added to the newer versions and
enabled by default.  I only base that assumption on the fact that
Cheetah is the only one running a different/earlier version than the rest.

      Yeah, I downloaded and compiled a module for regular expression
based ban exceptions a while back and installed it to test it then never
really got around to testing/suggesting it.

      It was at the same time that I was making some modifications to the
web site and installed a (modified by me) module to output a list of
current channels, topics and modes (the modes part was my modification)
to a file every 5 seconds or so.  It was so I could add a dynamic top
channels list to http://chat.anthrochat.net/ .  While I was searching
for a module for this, I ran across others that I thought sounded
interesting and grabbed them at the same time, but didn't really go back
and do anything with them other than install them.

      Here's my current module config:

loadmodule "modules/commands.so";
loadmodule "modules/cloak.so";
loadmodule "modules/m_ircops.so";
loadmodule "modules/m_getinfo.so";
loadmodule "modules/antimoon.so";
loadmodule "modules/m_regexcept.so";

(the first two are the default ones)

      Someone brought it up quite a while ago and I know that I checked
mine, at that time, by checking the hash of the tarball that I downloaded.
