| 8 |
+ |
o) irc-operators are now able to see a user's resolved hostname in /whowas, |
| 9 |
+ |
and /whois even if the user has a fakehost/vhost |
| 10 |
+ |
o) RPL_WELCOME now does use the rfc2812 style nick!user@host format |
| 11 |
+ |
o) Removed rudimentary libgeoip support |
| 12 |
+ |
o) Added --enable-efence switch to allow easy linking with the |
| 13 |
+ |
electric fence memory debugger library |
| 14 |
+ |
o) "JOIN 0" is no longer supported |
| 15 |
+ |
o) Fixed bug where ircd would not remove RPL_WHOISOPERATOR based svstags |
| 16 |

| 17 |
+ |
o) Fixed 'unknown closes' statistic in "STATS t" showing invalid values sometimes |
| 18 |

+ |
|
| 20 |
+ |
-- Noteworthy changes in version 8.2.22 (2017-03-26) |
| 21 |
+ |

| 22 |
+ |
extended ban list size specified with the new 'channel::max_bans_large' |
| 23 |
+ |
configuraton option. This mode can be set only by irc-operators or servers. |
| 24 |
+ |

| 25 |
+ |
to non-chanops everywhere |
| 26 |
+ |
o) Fixed an issue with "TRACE" where remote servers would reply with RPL_TRACEUSER |
| 27 |

o) Added 'channel::max_invites' configuration option. See doc/reference.conf |
| 43 |
+ |
for more information. |
| 44 |
+ |
o) INVITE expirations have been implemented. Expire time can be adjusted with |
| 45 |
+ |
the 'channel::invite_expire_time' configuration directive |
| 46 |
+ |
o) /whois notices to operators have been re-added. User mode +y is required |
| 47 |

to see them |
| 48 |
+ |

o) Admins no longer can see IP addresses in "STATS P" with |
| 56 |
+ |
'serverhide::hide_server_ips' enabled |
| 57 |

| 89 |
+ |
o) Major cleanups to the configuration subsystem |
| 90 |
+ |
o) Improvements to libGeoIP support: |
| 91 |
+ |
- Works now with IPv6 addresses |
| 92 |
+ |
- Added 'libgeoip_database_options', 'libgeoip_ipv4_database_file', |
| 93 |
+ |
and 'libgeoip_ipv6_database_file' configuration directives to the |
| 94 |
+ |
serverinfo {} block |
| 95 |
+ |
o) Further improvements to GnuTLS support |
| 96 |
+ |
|
| 97 |
+ |
|
| 98 |
+ |
-- Noteworthy changes in version 8.2.13 (2016-02-02) |
| 99 |
+ |
o) Implemented support for GnuTLS. Currently ./configure's autodetection |
| 100 |
+ |
intentionally prefers OpenSSL over GnuTLS, so OpenSSL detection needs |
| 101 |
+ |
to be disabled explicitely by using the --disable-openssl switch. |
| 102 |
+ |
o) Minimum supported GnuTLS version is 3.3.8 now |
| 103 |
+ |
o) Minimum supported OpenSSL version is 1.0.1d now |

####################################################################### |
| 112 |
+ |
o) IMPORTANT: Character case mapping is 'ascii' now. It is recommended |
| 113 |
+ |
to update all servers on the network to prevent possible channel |
| 114 |
+ |
desynchronizations and nick name collision kills |
| 115 |
+ |
####################################################################### |
| 116 |
+ |
o) Added channel mode +T which forbids NOTICEs to be sent to a channel |
| 117 |
+ |
o) Fixed minor SVSTAG memory leak |
| 118 |
+ |
o) Fixed broken PART message blocking mechanism |
| 119 |
+ |
o) ircd now makes use of up to 8 name servers that are specified in |
| 120 |
+ |
/etc/resolv.conf |
| 121 |
+ |
o) The -klinefile, -dlinefile, etc. switches didn't work at all |
| 122 |
+ |
o) Fixed possible core on ident lookups if ircd is out of file descriptors |
| 123 |
+ |
o) Far client exit notices (+F) now show IP addresses, too |
| 124 |
+ |
o) Made idle time look nicer in "STATS v|p" by using a formatted time string |
| 125 |
+ |
o) 'general::ts_warn_delta', and 'general::ts_max_delta' can be set to 0 now |
| 126 |
+ |
o) Several code cleanups and optimizations. Improved documentation |
| 127 |

|
o) Implemented IRCv3.2 invite-notify extension |
| 131 |
|
o) Implemented IRCv3.2 chghost extension |
| 142 |
|
would not have any effect |
| 143 |
|
o) mkpasswd (tools): fixed broken bcrypt support on *BSD in conjunction |
| 144 |
|
with the -s and -l switches. Dropped MD5, DES and Extended DES support. |
| 145 |
< |
o) Removed CHALLENGE in favour or ssl certificate fingerprint enabled |
| 145 |
> |
o) Removed CHALLENGE in favor of ssl certificate fingerprint enabled |
| 146 |
|
operator {} blocks |
| 147 |
