+ngIRCd Release 16
+
+  - 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 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.
+  - 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.
