-  - Fixed return values of our own implementation of strlcpy(). The code has
-    been taken from rsync and they fixed it, but we didn't until today :-/
-    It has only been used when the system didn't implement strlcpy by itself,
-    not on "modern" systems. Florian Westphal, <westphal@foo.fh-furtwangen.de>.
+  - Internal: For outgoing (Server) connections, allocte Connstruct after
+    successfull connect(). Made Conn-ID equal to connection file descriptor.
+  - Internal: Simplified resolver code.
+  - JOIN now supports more than one channel key at a time.
+  - Implementec numeric "333": Time and user name who set a channel topic.
+  - Enhanced the handler for PING and PONG commands: fix forwarding and enable
+    back-passing of a client supplied additional argument of PING.
+  - Changed handling of timeouts for unregistered connections: don't reset
+    the counter if data is received and disconnect clients earlier.
+  - Removed unnecessary #define of "LOCAL", now use plain C "static" instead.
+  - Channel topics are no longer limited to 127 characters: now the only limit
+    is the maximum length of an IRC command, i. e. 512 bytes (in practice, this
+    limits the topic to about 490 characters due to protocol overhead).
+  - Reverse DNS lookup code now checks the result by doing an additional
+    lookup to prevent spoofing.
+  - Added new IO layer which (optionally) supports epoll() and kqueue() in
+    addition to the select() interface.
+
+ngIRCd 0.9.2 (2005-10-15)
+
+  - Fixed a bug that could cause the damon to crash when outgoing server
+    connections can't be established.
+  - Fixed a bug that caused the daemon to leak file descriptors when no
+    resolver subprocesses could be created.
+  - Fixed server NOTICEs to users with "s" mode ("server messages").
+  - Fixed a format string bug in "connection statistics" messages to clients.
+
+ngIRCd 0.9.1 (2005-08-03)
+
+  - The KILL command killed much more than desired (including server links!)
+    when the target user is connected to a remote server. Bug introduced in
+    ngIRCd 0.9.0 ...  Reported by <qssl@fastmail.fm>, Thanks!
+  - Changed some constants to be "signed" (instead of unsigned) to solve
+    problems with old (pre-ANSI) compilers.
+
+ngIRCd 0.9.0 (2005-07-24)
+
+  ngIRCd 0.9.0-pre1 (2005-07-09)
+  - Fixed maximum length of user names, now allow up to 9 characters.
+  - Cut off oversized IRC messages that should be sent to the network instead
+    of shutting down the (wrong) connection.
+  - Don't generate error messages for unknown commands received before the
+    client is registered with the server (like the original ircd).
+  - Never run with root privileges but always switch the user ID.
+  - Make "netsplit" messages RFC compliant.
+  - Fix handling of QUIT Messages: send only one message, even if the client
+    is member of multiple channels.
+  - Don't exit server if closing of a socket fails; instead ignore it and
+    pray that this will be "the right thing" ...
+  - Implemented the IRC function "WHOWAS".
+  - Don't enable assert() calls when not ./configure'd with --enable-debug.
+  - Fixed ./configure test for TCP Wrappers: now it runs on Mac OS X as well.
+  - Enhanced configure script: now you can pass an (optional) search path
+    to all --with-XXX parameters, e. g. "--with-ident=/opt/ident".
+  - Removed typedefs for the native C datatypes.
+    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 prevent the ircd2 daemon to drop mode changes of IRC operators.
+    Patch by Florian Westphal, <westphal@foo.fh-furtwangen.de>.
+  - Implemented support for "secret channels" (channel mode "s").
+  - New configuration option "Mask" for [Operator] sections to limit OPER
+    commands to users with a specific IRC mask. Patch from Florian Westphal.
+  - Write "error file" (/tmp/ngircd-XXX.err) only if compiled with debug
+    code ("--enable-debug") and running as daemon process.
+  - Don't create version information string each time a client connects
+    but instead on server startup. By Florian Westphal.
+  - New configuration variable "PidFile", section "[Global]": if defined,
+    the server writes its process ID (PID) to this file. Default: off.
+    Idea of Florian Westphal, <westphal@foo.fh-furtwangen.de>.
+  - Code cleanups from Florian Westphal, <westphal@foo.fh-furtwangen.de>.

   - Raised the maximum length of passwords to 20 characters.
   - Fixed a memory leak when resizing the connection pool and realloc()
     failed. Now we don't fall back to malloc(), which should be sane anyway.
     Patch from Florian Westphal, <westphal@foo.fh-furtwangen.de>.
