Rosella
About
Rosella is a small ircd (Internet Relay Chat Daemon). It partially implements RFC2812, but will never be fully compliant.
Rosella is intended to provide a portable, light-weight, near-zero-conf ircd capable of handling many simultaneous connections, whilst providing as much privacy for its users as possible.
Rosella is not production ready, or recommended for large-scale usage.
An x.509 key and certificate are required to open a TLS listener. Proper key handling and certificate checking is the responsibility of the users. Rosella cannot protect you from stupidity or untrustworthy CA's.
Design Principles
-
Rosella will not spy upon its users, or log them in any way.
-
Rosella will not communicate with any users in plaintext.
-
Rosella will not provide any mechanism for identifying other users beyond their nicknames.
-
Rosella will not allow any users to spy upon any other users.
-
Rosella's source code will remain simple and easy to read to enable quick and easy code-reviews by its users.
Contributing
Patches and pull requests are welcome as long as they follow the design principles I have laid.
