+
+ngIRCd Release 13 (2008-12-25)
+
+ ngIRCd 13~rc1 (2008-11-21):
+ - New version number scheme :-)
+ - Initial support for IRC services, using a RFC1459 style interface,
+ tested with IRCServices (http://www.ircservices.za.net/) version 5.1.13.
+ For this to work, ngIRCd now supports server-server links conforming
+ 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.
+ - New configuration option "NoIdent" to disable IDENT lookups even if the
+ daemon is compiled with IDENT support.
+
+ngIRCd 0.12.1 (2008-07-09)
+
+ - Add option aliases -V (for --version) and -h (for --help).
+ - Make Listen parameter a comma-separated list of addresses. This also
+ obsoletes ListenIPv4 and ListenIPv6 options. If Listen is unset, it
+ is treated as Listen="::,0.0.0.0".
+ Note: ListenIPv4 and ListenIPv6 options are still recognized,
+ but ngircd will print a warning if they are used in the config file.
+
+ngIRCd 0.12.0 (2008-05-13)
+
+ ngIRCd 0.12.0-pre2 (2008-04-29)

- against user nickname/servername/hostname, etc. as required by
- RFC 2812, Section 3.6.1. (reported by Dana Dahlstrom)
