-Biboumi
-=======
-
-Biboumi is an XMPP gateway that connects to IRC servers and translates
-between the two protocols. It can be used to access IRC channels using any
-XMPP client as if these channels were XMPP MUCs.
-
-It is written in modern C++14 and makes great efforts to have as little
-dependencies and to be as simple as possible.
-
-The goal is to provide a way to access most of IRC features using any XMPP
-client. It doesn’t however try to provide a complete mapping of the
-features of both worlds simply because this is not useful and most probably
-impossible. For example all IRC modes are not all translatable into an XMPP
-features. Some of them are (like +m (mute) or +o (operator) modes), but
-some others are IRC-specific. If IRC is the limiting factor (for example
-you cannot have a non-ASCII nickname on IRC) then biboumi doesn’t try to
-work around this issue: it just enforces the rules of the IRC server by
-telling the user that he/she must choose an ASCII-only nickname. An
-important goal is to keep the software (and its code) light and simple.
