+ngIRCd Release 16
+
+ ngIRCd 16~rc1 (2010-03-25)
+ - Various fixes to the build system and code cleanups.
+ - contrib/platformtest.sh: Only show latest commit.
+ - Updatet doc/Platforms.txt, added new README-Interix.txt documenting
+ how to tun ngIRCd on Microsoft Services for UNIX (MS SFU, MS SUA).
+ - Updated links to the ngIRCd homepage (bug tracker, mailing list).
+ - Added missing modes to USERMODES #define
+ - Show our name (IRCD=ngIRCd) in ISUPPORT (005) numeric
+ - Quote received messages of ERROR commands in log output.
+ - ngircd.conf manual page: document missing "Password" variable.
+ - Implement WEBIRC command used by some Web-IRC frontends. The password
+ required to secure this command must be configured using the new
+ "WebircPassword" variable in the ngircd.conf file.
+ - Don't use port 6668 as example for both "Ports" and "SSLPorts".
+ - Remove limit on max number of configured irc operators.
+ - Only link "nsl" library when really needed.
+ - A new channel mode "secure connections only" (+z) has been implemented:
+ Only clients using a SSL encrypted connection to the server are allowed
+ to join such a channel.
+ But please note three things: a) already joined clients are not checked
+ when setting this mode, b) IRC operators are always allowed to join
+ every channel, and c) remote clients using a server not supporting this
+ mode are not checked either and therefore always allowed to join.
+
+ngIRCd Release 15 (2009-11-07)
+
+ - "ngircd --configtest": print SSL configuration options even when unset.
+
+ ngIRCd 15~rc1 (2009-10-15)
+ - Do not add default listening port (6667) if SSL ports were specified, so
+ ngIRCd can be configured to only accept SSL-encrypted connections now.
+ - Enable IRC operators to use the IRC command SQUIT (insted of the already
+ implemented but non-standard DISCONNECT command).
+ - New configuration option "AllowRemoteOper" (disabled by default) that
+ enables remote IRC operators to use the IRC commands SQUIT and CONNECT
+ on the local server.
+ - Mac OS X: fix test for packagemaker(1) tool in Makefile and use gcc 4.0
+ for Mac OS X 10.4 compatibility in the Xcode project file.
+ - Fix --with-{openssl|gnutls} to accept path names.
+ - Fix LSB header of Debian init script.
+ - Updated doc/Platforms.txt and include new script contrib/platformtest.sh
+ to ease generating platform reports.
+ - Fix connection information for already registered connections.
+ - Enforce upper limit on maximum number of handled commands. This implements
+ a throttling scheme: an IRC client can send up to 3 commands or 256 bytes
+ per second before a one second pause is enforced.
+ - Fix connection counter.
+ - Fix a few error handling glitches for SSL/TLS connections.
+ - Minor fixes to manual pages and documentation.
+
+ngIRCd Release 14.1 (2009-05-05)
+
+ - Security: fix remotely triggerable crash in SSL/TLS code.
+ - BSD start script contrib/ngircd.sh has been renamed to ngircd-bsd.sh.
+ - New start/stop script for RedHat-based distributions:
+ contrib/ngircd-redhat.init, thanks to Naoya Nakazawa <naoya@sanow.net>.
+ - Doxygen: update source code repository link to GIT.
+ - Debian: build ngircd-full-dbg package.
+ - Allow ping timeout quit messages to show the timeout value.
+ - Fix error handling on compressed links.
+ - Fix server list announcement.
+ - Do not remove hostnames from info text.
+
+ngIRCd Release 14 (2009-04-20)

+
+ ngIRCd 14~rc1 (2009-03-29)
+ - Updated Debian/Linux init script (see contrib/Debian/ngircd.init).
+ - Allow creation of persistent modeless channels.
+ - The INFO command reports the compile time now (if available).
+ - Spell check and enhance ngIRCd manual pages.
+ - Channel mode changes: break on syntax errors in MODE command.
+ - Support individual channel keys for pre-defined channels: introduce
+ new configuration variable "KeyFile" in [Channel] sections in ngircd.conf,
+ here a file can be configured for each pre-defined channel which contains
+ individual channel keys for different users.
+ - Remove limit on maximum number of predefined channels in ngircd.conf.
+ - Updated ngircd.spec file for building RPM packages.
+ - Add new and missing files to Mac OS X Xcode project, and update project.
+ - Reject masks with wildcard after last dot.
+ - TLS/SSL: remove useless error message when ssl connection is closed.
+ - Fix memory leak when a encrypted and compressed server link goes down.
+ (closes bug #95, reported by Christoph, fiesh@fiesh.homeip.net)
+ - Fix handling of channels containing dots.
+ (closes ug #93, reported by Gonosz Csiga)
+
+ngIRCd Release 13 (2008-12-25)
+
+ - Updated documentation, especially doc/Services.txt and doc/SSL.txt.
+ - Make the test suite work on OpenSolaris.
+
+ ngIRCd 13~rc1 (2008-11-21):
+ - New version number scheme :-)
+ - Initial support for IRC services, using a RFC1459 style interface,
+ tested with IRCServices (http://www.ircservices.za.net/) version 5.1.13.
+ For this to work, ngIRCd now supports server-server links conforming
+ to RFC 1459. New ngircd.conf(5) option: ServiceMask.
+ - Support for SSL-encrypted server-server and client-server links using
+ OpenSSL (configure: --with-openssl) or GNUTLS (configure: --with-gnutls).
+ New ngircd.conf(5) options: SSLPorts, SSLKeyFile, SSLKeyFilePassword,
+ SSLCertFile, SSLDHFile, and SSLConnect.
+ - Server local channels have been implemented, prefix "&", that are only
+ visible to users of the same server and are not visible in the network.
+ In addition ngIRCd creates a "special" channel &SERVER on startup and logs
+ all the messages to it that a user with mode +s receives.
+ - New make target "osxpkg" to build a Mac OS X installer package.
+ - Debug mode: enable support for GNU libc memory tracing (see mtrace(3)).
+ - SysV init script: use LSB logging functions, if available.
+ - Added some more FAQ entries (regarding logging and IRC operators).
+ - Allow IRC operators to overwrite channel limits.
+ - Support for enhanced PRIVMSG and NOTICE message targets.
+ - More tests have been added to the test-suite ("make check"), and two
+ servers are started for testing server-server linking.
+ - Added a timestamp to log messages to the console.
+ - New configuration option "NoIdent" to disable IDENT lookups even if the
+ daemon is compiled with IDENT support.
+
+ngIRCd 0.12.1 (2008-07-09)
+
+ - Allow mixed line terminations (CR+LF/CR/LF) in non-RFC-compliant mode
+ - Don't allow stray \r or \n in command parameters
+ - --configtest: return non-zero exit code if there are errors
+ - Update ngIRCd manual pages
+ - Add option aliases -V (for --version) and -h (for --help).
+ - Fix 'no-ipv6' compile error.
+ - Make Listen parameter a comma-separated list of addresses. This also
+ obsoletes ListenIPv4 and ListenIPv6 options. If Listen is unset, it
+ is treated as Listen="::,0.0.0.0".
+ Note: ListenIPv4 and ListenIPv6 options are still recognized,
+ but ngircd will print a warning if they are used in the config file.
+
+ngIRCd 0.12.0 (2008-05-13)
+
+ - Fix Bug: 85: "WHO #SecretChannel" that user is not a member of now returns
+ proper RPL_ENDOFWHO_MSG instead of nothing. (Ali Shemiran)
+ - Fix compile on FreeBSD 5.4 and AIX.
+ - If bind() fails, also print IP address and not just the port number.
