-ngIRCd HEAD
-
+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.

+ - The INFO command reports the compile time now (if available).
+ - Spell check and enhance ngIRCd manual pages.

+ 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.

+
+ ngIRCd 13~rc1 (2008-11-21):
+ - New version number scheme :-)
+ - Initial support for IRC services, using a RFC1459 style interface,

+ 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.

+ 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
