no-implicit-names
This specification has been superseded by the IRC draft/no-implicit-names
extension.
Description
This document describes the no-implicit-names
extension. This allows clients to opt-out from the implicit NAMES
reply servers send after JOIN
messages.
Some clients don't need to query the list of channel members for all joined channels. Omitting this information can reduce the time taken to connect to the server, especially on mobile devices and when a large number of channels are joined.
Implementation
The no-implicit-names
extension introduces the soju.im/no-implicit-names
capability. When negotiated, servers MUST NOT send an implicit NAMES
reply after sending a JOIN
message. Servers MUST reply to explicit NAMES
commands sent by the client as usual.
