-- ChangeLog --
-ngIRCd CVSHEAD
- - Make Netsplit Messages RFC compliant.
- - Fix handling of QUIT Messages: send only one message, even if client
+ngIRCd HEAD
+
+ - Added support for IO APIs "poll()" and "/dev/poll".
+ - Reorganized internal handling of invite and ban lists.
+
+ngIRCd 0.10.1 (2006-12-17)
+
+ - Fixed validation of server names containing digits.
+ - Update the "info text" of the local server after re-reading configuration.
+ - Changed Numerics 265 and 266 to follow ircd 2.11.x "standards".
+ - Allow PASS syntax defined in RFC 1459 for server links, too.
+ - Enhanced ISUPPORT message (005 numeric).
+ - New configuration option "PredefChannelsOnly": if set, clients can only
+ join predefined channels.
+ - Code cleanups: use "LogDebug(...)" instead of "Log(LOG_DEBUG, ...)", use
+ "strcspn()", unsigned vs. signed, use "const", fix whitespaces, ...
+
+ngIRCd 0.10.0 (2006-10-01)
+
+ - Fixed file handle leak when daemon is not able to send MOTD to a client.
+
+ ngIRCd 0.10.0-pre2 (2006-09-09)
+ - Fixed build problems with GCC option -fstack-protector.
+ - Minor documentation updates.
+
+ ngIRCd 0.10.0-pre1 (2006-08-02)
+ - Validate "ServerName" (see RFC 2812, section 2.3.1).
+ - Enhanced DIE to accept a single parameter ("comment text") which is sent
+ to all locally connected clients before the server goes down.
+ - The ngIRCd handles time shifts backwards more gracefully now (the
+ timeout handling doesn't disconnect clients by mistake any more).
+ - Internal: Restructured connection handling (the connection ID is equal
+ to the file descriptor of the connection).
+ - Internal: Simplified resolver code.
+ - JOIN now supports more than one channel key at a time.
+ - Implemented numeric "333": Time and user name who set a channel topic.
+ - Enhanced the handler for PING and PONG commands: fix forwarding and enable
+ back-passing of a client supplied additional argument of PING.
+ - Changed handling of timeouts for unregistered connections: don't reset
+ the counter if data is received and disconnect clients earlier.
+ - Removed unnecessary #define of "LOCAL", now use plain C "static" instead.
+ - Channel topics are no longer limited to 127 characters: now the only limit
+ is the maximum length of an IRC command, i. e. 512 bytes (in practice, this
+ limits the topic to about 490 characters due to protocol overhead).
+ - Reverse DNS lookup code now checks the result by doing an additional
+ lookup to prevent spoofing.
+ - Added new IO layer which (optionally) supports epoll() and kqueue() in
+ addition to the select() interface.
+
+ngIRCd 0.9.2 (2005-10-15)
+
+ - Fixed a bug that could cause the daemon to crash when outgoing server
+ connections can't be established.
+ - Fixed a bug that caused the daemon to leak file descriptors when no
+ resolver subprocesses could be created.
+ - Fixed server NOTICEs to users with "s" mode ("server messages").
+ - Fixed a format string bug in "connection statistics" messages to clients.
+
+ngIRCd 0.9.1 (2005-08-03)
+
+ - The KILL command killed much more than desired (including server links!)
+ when the target user is connected to a remote server. Bug introduced in
+ ngIRCd 0.9.0 ... Reported by <qssl@fastmail.fm>, Thanks!
+ - Changed some constants to be "signed" (instead of unsigned) to solve
+ problems with old (pre-ANSI) compilers.
+
+ngIRCd 0.9.0 (2005-07-24)
+
+ ngIRCd 0.9.0-pre1 (2005-07-09)
+ - Fixed maximum length of user names, now allow up to 9 characters.
+ - Cut off oversized IRC messages that should be sent to the network instead
+ of shutting down the (wrong) connection.
+ - Don't generate error messages for unknown commands received before the
+ client is registered with the server (like the original ircd).
+ - Never run with root privileges but always switch the user ID.
+ - Make "netsplit" messages RFC compliant.
+ - Fix handling of QUIT Messages: send only one message, even if the client
is member of multiple channels.
- Don't exit server if closing of a socket fails; instead ignore it and
pray that this will be "the right thing" ...
most probably other older C compilers on other systems.
- When the daemon should switch to another user ID (ServerID is defined in
the configuration file) and is not running in a chroot environment, it
- changes it's working directory to the home directory of this user. This
+ changes its working directory to the home directory of this user. This
should enable the system to write proper core files when not running with
root privileges ...
