1244 |
- Added SVSNICK, and SVSMODE command handlers |
132 |
|
|
- Added service stamps to NICK/UID messages |
133 |
michael |
1409 |
- Added SVS to server capabilities (CAPAB). SVS capable servers can |
134 |
michael |
1420 |
deal with extended NICK/UID messages that contain service IDs/stamps. |
135 |
lusky |
1580 |
- Changed rejected client notices to go to new usermode +j. These |
136 |
|
|
previously used usermode +r. |
137 |
|
|
- Added usermode +r (registered nick) and channelmode +r (registered channel) |
138 |
|
|
- Added usermode +R (only registered clients may send a private message) |
139 |
|
|
- Added channelmode +R (only registered clients may join that channel) |
140 |
michael |

141 |
|
|
- Added services{} block to ircd.conf |
142 |
|
|
- Added services_name directive to general{} block |
143 |
michael |
1421 |
- Added GLOBOPS mainly for services compatibility, but can be used by operators, too |
144 |
lusky |
1580 |
o) Removed RKLINE and RXLINE commands. Regular expression based bans should |
145 |
|
|
only be added via ircd.conf |
146 |
|
|
o) Added 'globops', 'restart', 'dline', 'undline' and 'module' operator |
147 |
michael |
1823 |
privilege flags. Read doc/reference.conf for further explanation of what |
148 |
lusky |
1580 |
these flags control |
149 |
|
|
o) Removed Idle-time klines |
150 |
michael |
1244 |
o) Cleaned up modules API. Old modules won't work anymore |
151 |
lusky |
1580 |
o) Removed general::burst_away configuration directive. AWAY bursts are now |
152 |
michael |
1274 |
controlled via connect::flags explicitly |
153 |
|
|
o) Introduced new logging subsystem including log rotation based on |
154 |
michael |
1418 |
file sizes. Log timestamp format is ISO8601 now |
155 |
michael |
1315 |
o) Added support for remote D-lines |
156 |
|
|
o) Added usermode +H which is basically a replacement for the hidden_admin and |
157 |
|
|
hidden_oper operator flags. With usermode +H, irc operator status can now |
158 |
|
|
be hidden even on remote servers |
159 |
michael |
1418 |
o) Added CIDR support for operator{} blocks |
160 |
lusky |
1580 |
o) Removed the servlink program. ircd-hybrid can now make use of |
161 |
|
|
SSL/TLS for inter-server communication. |
162 |
michael |
1315 |
NOTE: compressed server links are of course still available, but a SSL/TLS |
163 |
lusky |
1580 |
connection is required, as compression is now handled via OpenSSL |
164 |
michael |
1418 |
o) Removed 'ssl_server_protocol' configuration directive and |
165 |
|
|
added 'ssl_client_method' and 'ssl_server_method' instead. |
166 |
|
|
Both of these options can now be changed at runtime |
167 |
michael |
1382 |
o) Oper login IDs are no longer limited to NICKLEN*2 |
168 |
michael |
1401 |
o) Removed channel::burst_topicwho configuration option. Topicsetters are |
169 |
|
|
now sent by default |
170 |
michael |
1418 |
o) "STATS Y|y" now reports CIDR limits as well |
171 |
|
|
o) Added m_webirc.c to contrib/ |
