# TODO: We need a separate file where we can store regexp/functions
# to match a erc-server-announced-name against a erc-networks-alist entry.
# For sanity, we'df need a lookup procedure here, and insert the
# regexp/function instead of the nil value in the erc-networks-alist.
#
# There is a error somehow in the servers.ini. There are two
# undernets, undernet and Undernet. They are the same though.
# So we'd need to unify them somehow (change case)?
