+ngIRCd Release 16 (2010-05-02)
+
+  ngIRCd 16~rc2 (2010-04-25)
+  - Enhace connection statistics counters: display total number of served
+    connections on daemon shutdown and when a new client connects using
+    the new numeric RPL_STATSCONN (250).
+
+  ngIRCd 16~rc1 (2010-03-25)
+  - Implement WEBIRC command used by some Web-IRC frontends. The password
+    required to secure this command must be configured using the new
+    "WebircPassword" variable in the ngircd.conf file.
+  - Remove limit on max number of configured irc operators.
+  - A new channel mode "secure connections only" (+z) has been implemented:
+    Only clients using a SSL encrypted connection to the server are allowed
+    to join such a channel.
+    But please note three things: a) already joined clients are not checked
+    when setting this mode, b) IRC operators are always allowed to join
+    every channel, and c) remote clients using a server not supporting this
+    mode are not checked either and therefore always allowed to join.
+
+ngIRCd Release 15 (2009-11-07)
+
+  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.
+  - 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.
+
+ngIRCd Release 14.1 (2009-05-05)
+
+  - Security: fix remotely triggerable crash in SSL/TLS code.
+  - Debian: build ngircd-full-dbg package.
+  - Allow ping timeout quit messages to show the timeout value.
+
+ngIRCd Release 14 (2009-04-20)
+
+  ngIRCd 14~rc1 (2009-03-29)
+  - Allow creation of persistent modeless channels.
+  - The INFO command reports the compile time now (if available).
   - Support individual channel keys for pre-defined channels: introduce
     new configuration variable "KeyFile" in [Channel] sections in ngircd.conf,
     here a file can be configured for each pre-defined channel which contains
     individual channel keys for different users.
   - Remove limit on maximum number of predefined channels in ngircd.conf.
-  - Implement pre-defined server local channels ("&") and write some
-    server-specific messages to &SERVER.
