- Replace WATCH with IRCv3.2 MONITOR

- Extban $n of type 'acting' has been implemented. This extban prevents matching users from changing their
  nick while in the channel. Users with voice or above are not affected.
- Channel mode +N has been changed so channel members with +v can change nick names, too

- Extbans have been implemented. Main implementation done by Adam for p4.
  Currently supported extbans:

  Matching:

   $a:<account>   Matches users logged into a matching account.
   $c:<channel>   Matches users that are on the given channel. An additional
                  prefix of either @, %, or + can be specified to test for
                  certain channel privileges.
   $o:<class>     Matches IRC operators that have joined a class
                  matching the mask.
   $r:<realname>  Matches users with a matching realname.
   $s:<server>    Matches users that are connected to a server matching the mask.
   $u:<modes>     Matches users having the specified user modes set or not set.
   $z:<certfp>    Matches users having the given TLS certificate fingerprint.

  Acting:

   $j:<banmask>   Prevents matching users from joining the channel.
   $m:<banmask>   Blocks messages from matching users. Users with voice
                  or above are not affected.

- Get rid of version.c

- Killed userhost.c. Rewrote everything to use ipcache.c

- Rip out mempool

- Fixed svn properties

- Move service {} block configuration management into its own module

- Clustering has been broken in -r7158. Rewrote most of the shared/cluster implementation to be less obscure.
  This introduces a little bit of code duplication, but increases readability, is less error prone, and
  reduces memory consumption a bit. 

- Incorporate gnutls support by Adam & Attila

- Allow the maintainers of the debian ircd-hybrid package to have their own BUILD_DATE shown in the RPL_CREATED numeric.
  Patch submitted by Dominic Hargreaves <dom@debian.org>, slightly modified by me to fit ircd-hybrid needs

- Moved all ISUPPORT related code to isupport.c; renamed several functions to meet our coding convention

- Removed glines
- Added kline_min_cidr, kline_min_cidr6, dline_min_cidr and
  dline_min_cidr6 configuration options
- m_dline.c: allow d-lines to be added even if an exempt {} exists

- Removed select() support

- Removed hooking system

- Moved files:
  s_user.c -> user.c
  s_misc.c -> misc.c
  s_serv.c -> server.c

- Moved irc_res.c to res.c
- Moved irc_reslib.c to reslib.c

- ircd binary is now again placed in /bin instead of /sbin

- Stole ircu's outbound message queue implementation for later use

- Implement motd{} configuration blocks based on ircu's implementation

- Made all numeric defines use the actual string instead of the numeric value
  which allows to use gcc's printf format attribute
- Remove current message locale implementation

- Forward-port -r1732 [Dropped support for linux rt signals]

- Implemented memory pool allocator which basically is taken from Tor's
  mempool allocator for Tor cells
- Fixed compile warnings in conf_class.c
- ./configure --enable-assert works again

- klines, dlines, xlines, glines and resv now make use of the new database;
  also, temporary *lines are now stored, so they're not lost after
  restarting the ircd. This also applies to G-lines.

- Second time's the charm? Moving svnroot/ircd-hybrid-8 to
  svnroot/ircd-hybrid/trunk

- Removed 'ssl_server_protocol' configuration directive and
  added 'ssl_client_method' and 'ssl_server_method' instead.

  Both of these options can now be changed at runtime.

- src/Makefile.am: swapped order of conf_parser.y and conf_lexer.l
- Update example configuration files

- servlink is gone; cleanup and sanitize openssl detection tests

- create ircd-hybrid-8 "branch"

- Got rid of irc_addrinfo.c and irc_getnameinfo.c
- Fixed broken ipv6 detection due to incorrect use of AC_CHECK_TYPES

- branch off trunk to create 7.3 branch

- move list manipulation routines from tools.c to list.c
- mem_frob() goes to memory.c
- sort out redundant/unneeded header includes

- remove conf_add_d_conf wrapper

- removed last traces of crypt.c
- add disable-static to libtools options

- Implemented libtool-ltdl. Only shared modules are supported currently
- Several build fixes and cleanups. ircd now builds and runs without any problems
- Added back all files to SVN that are needed to built the daemon
  I really don't want to force other people that want to test the snapshots
  or svn versions to install yyacc, lex, automake, autoconf and libtool...
  No problem having required files in svn
- Removed some automake maintainer stuff which is kinda useless for us
