+ngIRCd Release 16 (2010-05-02)
+
+ - doc/SSL: remove line continuation marker
+
+ ngIRCd 16~rc2 (2010-04-25)
+ - Updated some more copyright notices, it's 2010 already :-)
+ - Only compile in Get_Error() if really needed
+ - Fix gcc warning "ignoring return value of ..."
+ - Include netinet/in_systm.h alongside netinet/ip.h
+ - Include netinet/{in.h, in_systm.h} when checking for netinet/ip.h
+ - Only include <netinet/in_systm.h> if it exists
+ - Updated doc/Platforms.txt
+ - 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)
+ - Various fixes to the build system and code cleanups.
+ - contrib/platformtest.sh: Only show latest commit.
+ - Updatet doc/Platforms.txt, added new README-Interix.txt documenting
+ how to tun ngIRCd on Microsoft Services for UNIX (MS SFU, MS SUA).
+ - Updated links to the ngIRCd homepage (bug tracker, mailing list).
+ - Added missing modes to USERMODES #define
+ - Show our name (IRCD=ngIRCd) in ISUPPORT (005) numeric
+ - Quote received messages of ERROR commands in log output.
+ - ngircd.conf manual page: document missing "Password" variable.
+ - 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.
+ - Don't use port 6668 as example for both "Ports" and "SSLPorts".
+ - Remove limit on max number of configured irc operators.
+ - Only link "nsl" library when really needed.
+ - 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 --configtest": print SSL configuration options even when unset.
+
+ 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.
+ - Mac OS X: fix test for packagemaker(1) tool in Makefile and use gcc 4.0
+ for Mac OS X 10.4 compatibility in the Xcode project file.
+ - Fix --with-{openssl|gnutls} to accept path names.
+ - Fix LSB header of Debian init script.
+ - Updated doc/Platforms.txt and include new script contrib/platformtest.sh
+ to ease generating platform reports.
+ - Fix connection information for already registered connections.
+ - 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.
+ - Fix connection counter.
+ - Fix a few error handling glitches for SSL/TLS connections.
+ - Minor fixes to manual pages and documentation.
+
+ngIRCd Release 14.1 (2009-05-05)
+

+ - BSD start script contrib/ngircd.sh has been renamed to ngircd-bsd.sh.
+ - New start/stop script for RedHat-based distributions:
+ contrib/ngircd-redhat.init, thanks to Naoya Nakazawa <naoya@sanow.net>.
+ - Doxygen: update source code repository link to GIT.
+ - Debian: build ngircd-full-dbg package.
+ - Allow ping timeout quit messages to show the timeout value.
+ - Fix error handling on compressed links.
+ - Fix server list announcement.
+ - Do not remove hostnames from info text.
+
