  "Reacquire a nickname from your past self or some interloper.
This module only concerns itself with initial nick rejections
that occur during connection registration in response to an
opening \"NICK\" command.  More specifically, the following
conditions must be met for ERC to activate this mechanism and
consider its main option, `erc-services-regain-alist':

  - the server must reject the opening \"NICK\" request
  - ERC must request a temporary nickname
  - the user must successfully authenticate

In practical terms, this means that this module, which is still
somewhat experimental, is likely only useful in conjunction with
SASL authentication rather than the traditional approach provided
by the `services' module it shares a library with (see Info
node `(erc) SASL' for more)."
