IRC technology news from the first half of 2024

There is a head-spinning amount of IRC news to share again. The big ticket item for this season is the release of InspIRCd v4.0.0 server software after five years of development. They have a nice overview of the biggest changes. Protocol specifications A work-in-progress REDACT command was added, to be used for moderation and retracting accidentally sent messages among other things. Documentation Modern IRC Client Protocol docs received updates and clarifications related to KICK, TOPIC and CHANTYPES.
