-It's written from scratch and is not based upon the original IRCd like
-many others. It is easy to configure, supports server links (even with
-original ircd's) and runs on hosts with changing IP addresses (such as
-dial-in networks).
+The name ngIRCd means
+.IR "next generation IRC daemon",
+which is a little bit exaggerated:
+.IR "lightweight Internet Relay Chat server"
+most probably would have been a better name :-)

 Currently supported platforms include AIX, A/UX, FreeBSD, HP-UX, IRIX,
 Linux, Mac OS X, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris, and Windows with Cygwin.

 there are good chances that it also supports other UNIX-based operating
-systems as well. By default, ngIRCd writes diagnostic and informational messages using
-the syslog mechanism.
