+ ngIRCd 23~rc1 (2015-09-06)
+ - Add ".clang_complete" file, which is used by the "linter-clang" package
+ of the Atom editor, for example.
+ - Make server-to-server protocol more robust: ngIRCd now catches more
+ errors on the server-to-server (S2S) protocol that could crash the
+ daemon before. This hasn't been a real problem because the IRC S2S
+ protocol is "trusted" by design, but the behavior is much better now.
+ Thanks to wowaname on #ngircd for pointing this out!
+ - Make platformtest.sh, autogen.sh, and ngircd.init more portable.
+ - Enables "reproducible builds" for ngIRCd: Use the optional BIRTHTIME
+ constant while building ngIRCd, which contains a time stamp for the
+ "Birth Date" information, in seconds since the epoch.
+ See <https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds>.
+ - Update "contrib/ngircd.service" file for systemd.
- INSTALL: Add deprecation notice for "PredefChannelsOnly" variable.
- Use "NOTICE *" before registration instead of "NOTICE AUTH". "AUTH" is
a valid nickname so sending notices to it is probably not a good idea.
Use "*" as the target instead as done with numerics when the nick is not
- available. This mimics the behaviour in Charybdis, IRCD-Hybrid, InspIRCd

2.2, Plexus 4, etc. Closes #217.
The "NoticeAuth" configuration variable (ngircd.conf) has been renamed
to "NoticeBeforeRegistration" accordingly, but the old name is still
clients, including Pidgin and stunnel 5.06, to reuse a session.
Patch by Tom Ryder <tom@sanctum.geek.nz>, thanks! Closes #182.
- Keep track of who placed bans, invites, and excepts.
- Idee and implementation by LucentW, Thanks! Closes #203.
+ Idea and implementation by LucentW, Thanks! Closes #203.
- Make setgroups(3) function optional: For example, Interix is missing
this function, which prevented ngIRCd to build on this platform. When
setgroups(3) isn't available, a warning message is issued on startup.
- Implement numeric RPL_LISTSTART(321). lightIRC and other clients
expecting RPL_LISTSTART should now behave correctly.
- Idee and implementation by LucentW, Thanks! Closes #207.
- - Update ngircd.conf.5: "CloadUserToNick" hides user _and_ real name.
+ Idea and implementation by LucentW, Thanks! Closes #207.
+ - Update ngircd.conf.5: "CloakUserToNick" hides user _and_ real name.
This closes #208.
- Fix case insensitive pattern matching: Up to now, only the the input
string became lowercased and was then compared to the pattern -- which
hide IP addresses/hostnames on WHOIS when "MorePrivacy" is in effect.
This closes #198.
- IRC operators now can kick anyone when "OperCanMode" is set.
- Idee and implementation by LucentW, Thanks! Closes #202.
+ Idea and implementation by LucentW, Thanks! Closes #202.
- Implement user mode "I": Hide channels on WHOIS: this mode prevents
ngIRCd from showing channels on WHOIS (IRC Operators can always see
the channel list).

+ Idea and implementation by LucentW, Thanks! Closes #197.
- INVITE command: Implement ERR_USERNOTONSERV(504) numeric and make sure
that the target user is on the same server when inviting other users
to local ("&") channels.
"CC=xxx MAKE=yyy ./platformtest.sh" calling convention.
- Add instructions for setting up Atheme IRC services.

handlers to return more than one "class prefix" to the client.
- Update Xcode project files: reference missing documentation files.
- Fix: Don't ignore "permission denied" errors when enabling chroot.
- contrib/platformtest.sh: make command name quoting consistent

"user" and "local1" through "local7" are possible values; see syslog(3).

- Make configure switch "--docdir" work (closes: #108).
- Reformat and update FAQ.txt a little bit.
- INSTALL: mention SSL, IPv6, and changed handling of MotdFile.
- - Change MOTD file handling: ngIRCd now caches the contens of the MOTD
+ - Change MOTD file handling: ngIRCd now caches the contents of the MOTD
file, so the daemon now requires a HUP signal or REHASH command to
re-read the MOTD file when its content changed.
- Startup: open /dev/null before chroot'ing the daemon.
- Include netinet/{in.h, in_systm.h} when checking for netinet/ip.h

- Added missing modes to USERMODES #define
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.

Use stdbool.h / inttypes.h if available.
- New configuration option "OperServerMode" to enable a workaround needed
when running an network with ircd2 servers and "OperCanUseMode" enabled
to add a new server (ngIRCd tries to connect new servers only once!).
- Added DISCONNECT command ("DISCONNECT <name>") to disable servers.
