Indeed. I have not looked at them yet, but at the moment I have no intention of adding them. According to the sourceforge project page, they are "pre-alpha." That's about as unstable as you can get. Also, I'm hesitant to add a VB6 program. VB6 is notoriously unstable and slow. I'm not so sure that's something I want to recommend users use. Perhaps when it is switched over to .NET I'll change my mind.

Yes. Winse is still in early development, so even as one of the coders for it, I can't exactly recommend it for a production network just yet. Mind, the released zipball (spinoff of tarball heh :) ) may be more stable than the build in CVS (HECK, CVS barely works at the moment :P ).

Of IRCServices, or winse? :p as yet another coder, I have millions of copies around, most unstable. Get the one from sourceforge:

For IRCServices, not sure... there's probably some description of link on http://www.servicescommunity.za.net

Yes, they are pre-alpha, but I'm starting to get optomistic for an alpha release (limited in features naturally) around december... I am a bit skeptical about vb6 as well, but we shouldnt have too much problems. .NET should fix quite a few issues :) (Option Strict pwns)

Well, most of the problems that crop up are to do with implicit type conversion... so, it's both of our faults :)
