34 michael 1020 o) Major 64-bit cleanups and portability fixes.
35 michael 1018 o) Fixed bug where unregistered clients were not able to complete registration
36     process with /quote PONG <ping_cookie> in case the client was assigned a
37     zero value ping-cookie. This may only happen with general::ping_cookie
38     being enabled.
39     o) "STATS z" now shows the actual amount of memory consumption being
40     used by channel bans/excepts/invites.
41     o) Fixed archaic bug where bursting servers with missconfigured NICKLEN were
42     able to desync the network's nickname database.
43     o) The PCRE library has been removed from the ircd sources. ./configure will
44     now automatically detect an already installed version of the PCRE library.
45 michael 991 o) Various resolver improvements and fixes
46     o) Implemented GUNGLINE (global ungline)
47 michael 1018 o) Completely rewrote build system. We're now using automake and libtool
48 michael 1025 o) Added support for SHA-256/512 encrypted passwords to mkpasswd. Whether
49     passwords hashed using these algorithms will work depends on the system's

51     version 2.7.
52 michael 991 o) Added ssl_server_protocol configuration option to servinfo{}.
53     Valid flags are 'sslv3' and 'tlsv1'
54     o) Added new 'server' option to listener::flags. Listener with that flag
55     set may only accept server connections.
56 michael 867 o) Fixed occasional core when placing RESVs on channel names
57 michael 878 o) Fixed topic desynchronization which sometimes may
58     happen during netbursts
59 michael 974 o) WATCH support implemented. Known from other irc-daemons, such
60 michael 1020 as Dreamforge and Bahamut. The general::max_watch configuration directive
61     has been added in order to allow run-time configuration of how many
62     watch entries a single client may have on its watchlist.
63 michael 883 o) Fixed bug which would cause invalid invisible counts on oper-up in case
64     operator::umodes and/or general::oper_umodes contains 'invisible'
65 michael 885 o) Removed broken LazyLinks
66 michael 991 o) Removed --disable-gline-voting configure option
67 michael 885 o) Minor code optimizations and cleanups
