|
|
following changes: |
709 |
michael |
1244 |
- Added SVSNICK, and SVSMODE command handlers |
710 |
|
|
- Added service stamps to NICK/UID messages |
711 |
michael |
1409 |
- Added SVS to server capabilities (CAPAB). SVS capable servers can |
712 |
michael |
1420 |
deal with extended NICK/UID messages that contain service IDs/stamps. |
713 |
lusky |
1580 |
- Changed rejected client notices to go to new usermode +j. These |
714 |
|
|
previously used usermode +r. |
715 |
|
|
- Added usermode +r (registered nick) and channelmode +r (registered channel) |
716 |
|
|
- Added usermode +R (only registered clients may send a private message) |
717 |
|
|
- Added channelmode +R (only registered clients may join that channel) |
718 |
michael |
1244 |
- Various services shortcuts have been added (/NS, /CS, /NICKSERV, /CHANSERV, etc.) |
719 |

- Added services {} block to ircd.conf |
720 |
|
|
- Added services_name directive to general {} block |
721 |
michael |
1421 |
- Added GLOBOPS mainly for services compatibility, but can be used by operators, too |
722 |
lusky |
1580 |
o) Removed RKLINE and RXLINE commands. Regular expression based bans should |
723 |
|
|
only be added via ircd.conf |
724 |
|
|
o) Added 'globops', 'restart', 'dline', 'undline' and 'module' operator |
725 |
michael |
1823 |
privilege flags. Read doc/reference.conf for further explanation of what |
726 |
lusky |
1580 |
these flags control |
727 |
|
|
o) Removed Idle-time klines |
728 |
michael |
1244 |
o) Cleaned up modules API. Old modules won't work anymore |
729 |

6639 |
o) Removed 'general::burst_away' configuration directive. AWAY bursts are now |
730 |
|
|
controlled via 'connect::flags' explicitly |
731 |
michael |
1274 |
o) Introduced new logging subsystem including log rotation based on |
732 |
michael |
1418 |
file sizes. Log timestamp format is ISO8601 now |
733 |
michael |
1315 |
o) Added support for remote D-lines |
734 |
|
|
o) Added usermode +H which is basically a replacement for the hidden_admin and |
735 |
|
|
hidden_oper operator flags. With usermode +H, irc operator status can now |
736 |
|
|
be hidden even on remote servers |
737 |
michael |
4952 |
o) Added CIDR support for operator {} blocks |
738 |
lusky |
1580 |
o) Removed the servlink program. ircd-hybrid can now make use of |
739 |
|
|
SSL/TLS for inter-server communication. |
740 |
michael |
1315 |
NOTE: compressed server links are of course still available, but a SSL/TLS |
741 |
lusky |
1580 |
connection is required, as compression is now handled via OpenSSL |
742 |
michael |
1418 |
o) Removed 'ssl_server_protocol' configuration directive and |
743 |
|
|
added 'ssl_client_method' and 'ssl_server_method' instead. |
744 |
|
|
Both of these options can now be changed at runtime |
745 |
michael |
1382 |
o) Oper login IDs are no longer limited to NICKLEN*2 |
746 |
michael |
6639 |
o) Removed 'channel::burst_topicwho' configuration option. This feature is now |
747 |

|
enabled by default |
748 |
michael |
1418 |
o) "STATS Y|y" now reports CIDR limits as well |
749 |
|
|
o) Added m_webirc.c to contrib/ |
