-  - Fixed KILL: you can't crash the server by killing yourself any more,
-    ngIRCd no longer sends a QUIT to other servers after the KILL, and you
-    can kill only valid users now.

   - If the server can't close a socket, it panics now. This is an error that
     can't occure during normal operation so there is something broken.
   - The order of log messages during disconnects is more "natural" now ;-)
   - Cleaned up handling of server configuration structures: modifying and
     removing servers during runtime works more reliable now.
   - Compression code from "conn.[ch]" is now found in new "conn-zip.[ch]"

   - Compression code from "conn.[ch]" is now found in new "conn-zip.[ch]"

+  - Moved some connection functions from "conn.[ch]" to "conn-func.[ch]".
+  - New command CONNECT to enable and add server links. The syntax is not
+    RFC-compatible: use "CONNECT <name> <port>" to enable and connect an
+    configured server and "CONNECT <name> <port> <host> <mypwd> <peerpwd>"
+    to add a new server (ngIRCd tries to connect new servers only once!).
+  - Added DISCONNECT command ("DISCONNECT <name>") to disable servers.
+  - Restructured the documentation: Now the main language is english.
+  - Enhanced killing of users caused by a nickname collision.
+  - Better error detection for status code ("numerics") forwarding.
+  - Moved tool functions to own library: "libngtool".
+  - New command TRACE (you can trace only servers at the moment).
+  - New command HELP that lists all understood commands.
+  - There should no longer remain "unknown connections" (see e.g. LUSERS)
+    if an outgoing server link can't be established.
+  - Added AC_PREREQ(2.50) to configure.in for better autoconf compatibility.
+  - Conn_Close() now handles recurisive calls for the same link correctly.
+  - ngIRCd can register itself with Rendezvous: to enable support pass the
+    new switch "--enable-rendezvous" to configure.

+ngIRCd 0.6.1, 2003-01-21
+
+  - Fixed KILL: you can't crash the server by killing yourself any more,
+    ngIRCd no longer sends a QUIT to other servers after the KILL, and you
+    can kill only valid users now.
+  - The server no longer forwards commands to ordinary users, instead it
+    answers with the correct error message ("no such server") now.
+  - WHOIS commands weren't always forwarded as requested.
+  - The server sets a correct default AWAY message now when propagating
+    between servers (bug introduced in 0.6.0).
+  - Fixed up and enhanced CHANINFO command: channel keys and user limits
+    are syncronized between servers now, too.
+  - MODE returns the key and user limit for channel members correctly now.
+  - Non-members of a channel could crash the server when trying to change
+    its modes or modes of its members.
+  - The server didn't validate weather a target user is a valid channel
+    member when changing his channel user modes which could crash ngIRCd.
