Well, I'm almost done with v0.3; I've added the allowed/disallowed commands/join channels/part channels options, and i've updated to add several other options. I've also updated the message strings on the language file to conform with eachother now lol.
As for my thoughts on using a pjirc.cnf file, at this point i've decided against it, as I wouldn't be able to utilize options via language strings to be edited in the control panel, and a lot of the option is through those at this point...
