-ngIRCd Release 17
+ngIRCd
+
+ - Deprecate NoXX-Options in ngircd.conf: 'NoDNS=no' => 'DNS=yes',
+ 'NoIdent=no' => 'Ident=yes', 'NoPAM=no' => 'PAM=yes', and
+ 'NoZeroConf=no' => 'ZeroConf=yes' (and vice-versa).
+ The defaults are adjusted accordingly and the old variables are still
+ accepted, so there is no functional change.
+ - Don't throttle services and servers beeing registered.

+ngIRCd Release 17 (2010-11-07)
+
+ - doc: change path names in sample-ngircd.conf depending on sysconfdir
+
+ ngIRCd 17~rc2 (2010-10-25)
+ - Generate ngIRCd version number from GIT tag.
+ - Make sourcecode compatible with ansi2knr again. This allows to compile
+ ngIRCd using a pre-ANSI K&R C compiler again.
+ ngIRCd 17~rc1 (2010-10-11)
+ - New configuration option "NoZeroConf" to disable service registration at
+ runtime even if ngIRCd is compiled with support for ZeroConf (e.g. using
+ Howl, Avahi or on Mac OS X).
+ - New configuration option "SyslogFacility" to define the syslog "facility"
+ (the "target"), to which ngIRCd should send its log messages.
+ Possible values are system dependant, but most probably "auth", "daemon",
+ "user" and "local1" through "local7" are possible values; see syslog(3).
+ Default is "local5" for historical reasons.
- Dump the "internal server state" (configured servers, established
connections and known clients) to the console or syslog when receiving
the SIGUSR2 signal and debug mode is enabled.
- New configuration option "NoPAM" to disable PAM.
- Implement asynchronous user authentication using PAM, please see the
file doc/PAM.txt for details.
+ - Add some documentation for using BOPM with ngIRCd, see doc/Bopm.txt.
- Implement user mode "c": receive connect/disconnect NOTICEs. Note that
this new mode requires the user to be an IRC operator.
- Show SSL status in WHOIS output, numeric 275.
