LOL I never meant the original posting to be:
Services=Dalnet
Which in fact wouldn't be a REAL service reply, since Dalnet doesn't *make* services, but at any rate, the reply I was mentioning was "SERVICES=Nickserv,Chanserv,Memoserv,Operserv"
This could be a variably lengthed service reply in case a service coder wants more than just the defacto 4 bots, the IRCD could just tell *all* service names.
While the other ideas aren't bad, this was my original intention.
I proposed the idea to the UnrealIRCD Developer Mailing List, and I did get a reply that someone did like the idea and was going to implement it into an IRCD that they were working on. I just emailed a reply (after about 3 weeks) to see if it's being worked on
I'll leave the exact details of their implementation at their disclosure, but it does satisfy multiple suggestions under this post
