DCC2 is in the works (Slashdot Article on DCC2). While this might fall under the "extensions" of DCC, it looks like it's going to be a complete replacement. Perhaps it should be mentioned in the article? -- Kowh 01:53, 26 Apr 2004 (UTC)

I'm adding a note to the effect that DCC FSERVE is only available under mIRC. It doesn't exist in X-Chat or anywhere in the ircII family. --Cuervo 01:36, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think FSERV is a separate service at the DCC level, but rather uses CHAT (or in place of that, CTCP) and SEND/XMIT together to create something else. This kind of scripting is not exclusive to mIRC either. I've updated the article to reflect this. --Andyluciano 22 Aug 2005, 05:33 (UTC)

CTCP vs. CTCP reply

Since the reply to a PRIVMSG should not be another PRIVMSG, a CTCP reply is implemented with a NOTICE. But is the DCC ACCEPT reply, which is a reply to a reply, a CTCP message or a CTCP reply? I guess that it should be a reply, and implemented with NOTICE, but it would be nice to have this confirmed.

XMIT

The only specification I could find for XMIT was an old working draft, which expired long ago. Was XMIT never accepted as a standard?
