-- ChangeLog --
-ngIRCd HEAD
+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.

+ ngIRCd 0.12.0-pre2 (2008-04-29)

+ - Don't include doc/CVS.txt in distribution archive, use doc/GIT.txt now!
+ - Documentation: get rid of some more references to CVS, switch to GIT.

+ - Report ERR_NOTONCHANNEL when trying to part a channel one is not member of.
+ - Testsuite: remove erroneous ConfUID setting in config file.
+
+ ngIRCd 0.12.0-pre1 (2008-04-20)
+ - Include Mac OS X Xcode project in distribution archives.
+ - Do not exit on SIGHUP or /REHASH if the config file cannot opened.
+ - Add IPv6 support.
+ - Install a LaunchDaemon script to start/stop ngIRCd on Mac OS X.
+ - Implemented IRC commands INFO, SUMMON (dummy), and USERS (dummy) and
+ enhanced test suite to check these commands. (Dana Dahlstrom)
+ - RPL_WHOREPLY messages generated by IRC_WHO didn't include flags (*,@,+).
+ (Dana Dahlstrom)
+ - IRC_WHO now supports search patterns and will test this against user
+ nickname/servername/hostname, etc. as required by RFC 2812, Section 3.6.1.
+ (reported by Dana Dahlstrom)
+ - Add test cases for "WHO" command. (Dana Dahlstrom)
+ - Implement RFC 2812 handling of "0" argument to 'JOIN': must be treated
+ as if the user had sent PART commands for all channels the user is a
+ member of. (Dana Dahlstrom)
+ - Allow NOTICEs to be sent to a channel. (Fabian Schlager)
+
+ngIRCd 0.11.1 (2008-02-26)

+ - New [Server] configuration Option "Bind" allows to specify
