6 michael 1245 -- ircd-hybrid-8beta1 Release Notes
7 michael 1244 o) Implemented full services support. Among other things, the following changes
8     have been done for this:
9     - Added SVSNICK, and SVSMODE command handlers
10     - Added service stamps to NICK/UID messages
11 michael 1409 - Added SVS to server capabilities (CAPAB). SVS capable servers can
12 michael 1420 deal with extended NICK/UID messages that contain service IDs/stamps.
13 michael 1244 - Usermode +r (registered nick) has been added, as well as
14 michael 1274 channelmode +r (registered channel)
15     - Now that usermode +r has a different function than before, rejected
16     client notices now go to new usermode +j
17 michael 1244 - Various services shortcuts have been added (/NS, /CS, /NICKSERV, /CHANSERV, etc.)
18     - Added channelmode +R (only registered clients may join that channel)
19     - Added usermode +R (only registered clients may send a private message)
20     - Added services{} block to ircd.conf
21     - Added services_name directive to general{} block
22 michael 1421 - Added GLOBOPS mainly for services compatibility, but can be used by operators, too
23 michael 1244 o) RKLINE and RXLINE commands have been removed. Regular expression based
24     bans should only be added via ircd.conf
25 michael 1315 o) Added 'globops', 'restart', 'dline', 'undline' and 'module' operator privilege flags.
26     Read doc/example.conf for further explanation of what these flags
27 michael 1274 are supposed to be doing
28 michael 1244 o) Idle-time klines have been removed
29     o) Cleaned up modules API. Old modules won't work anymore
30 michael 1274 o) Remove general::burst_away configuration directive. AWAY bursts are now
31     controlled via connect::flags explicitly
32     o) Introduced new logging subsystem including log rotation based on
33 michael 1418 file sizes. Log timestamp format is ISO8601 now
34 michael 1315 o) Added support for remote D-lines
35     o) Added usermode +H which is basically a replacement for the hidden_admin and
36     hidden_oper operator flags. With usermode +H, irc operator status can now
37     be hidden even on remote servers
38 michael 1418 o) Added CIDR support for operator{} blocks
39 michael 1315 o) The servlink program has been removed. ircd-hybrid can now make use of SSL/TLS
40     for inter-server communication.
41     NOTE: compressed server links are of course still available, but a SSL/TLS
42     connection is required, as compression is now handled via the OpenSSL library
43 michael 1418 o) Removed 'ssl_server_protocol' configuration directive and
44     added 'ssl_client_method' and 'ssl_server_method' instead.
45     Both of these options can now be changed at runtime
46 michael 1382 o) Oper login IDs are no longer limited to NICKLEN*2
47 michael 1401 o) Removed channel::burst_topicwho configuration option. Topicsetters are
48     now sent by default
49 michael 1418 o) "STATS Y|y" now reports CIDR limits as well
50     o) Added m_webirc.c to contrib/
51 michael 1409 o) Overall code cleanup and speed improvements
