# Line 1 | Line 1
1 + -- Noteworthy changes in version 8.2.30 (2020-??-??)
2 + o) "QUOTE HELP extban" didn't work because the extban help file hasn't been
3 +   installed properly during installation
4 + o) Fixed broken libcrypto detection which caused the ircd not to work with
5 +   openssl under certain circumstances
6 + o) Extban $n of type 'acting' has been implemented. This extban prevents
7 +   matching users from changing their nick while in the channel. Users
8 +   with voice or above are not affected.
9 +
10 +
11 + -- Noteworthy changes in version 8.2.29 (2020-02-19)
12 + o) Extbans have been implemented. Currently supported extbans:
13 +
14 +   Matching:
15 +  
16 +   $a:<account>   Matches users logged into a matching account.
17 +   $c:<channel>   Matches users that are on the given channel. An additional
18 +                  prefix of either @, %, or + can be specified to test for
19 +                  certain channel privileges.
20 +   $o:<class>     Matches IRC operators that have joined a class
21 +                  matching the mask.
22 +   $r:<realname>  Matches users with a matching realname.
23 +   $s:<server>    Matches users that are connected to a server matching the mask.
24 +   $u:<modes>     Matches users having the specified user modes set or not set.
25 +   $z:<certfp>    Matches users having the given TLS certificate fingerprint.
26 +  
27 +   Acting:
28 +  
29 +   $j:<banmask>   Prevents matching users from joining the channel.
30 +   $m:<banmask>   Blocks messages from matching users. Users with voice
31 +                  or above are not affected.
32 +
33 +   For more details, see help/extban.
34 + o) Added 'channel::enable_extbans' configuration option. See doc/reference.conf
35 +   for more information.
36 + o) For a full list of all changes in this release, see https://git.io/JvBca
37 +
38 +
39 + -- Noteworthy changes in version 8.2.28 (2020-01-26)
40 + o) Fixed issue with topics set by TBURST not being propagated properly to clients
41 + o) Allow IRC operators to search for real hosts in "WHO"
42 + o) Ban/exempt/invex masks are now also tested against realhosts to prevent clients
43 +   from bypassing channel bans by activating a fakehost
44 + o) For a full list of all changes in this release, see https://git.io/Jv37M
45 +
46 +
47 + -- Noteworthy changes in version 8.2.27 (2020-01-22)
48 + o) Experimental support for wolfSSL has been implemented. Minimum supported version is 4.3.0
49 + o) The --enable-openssl, --enable-gnutls switches, and their disabling counterparts
50 +   --disable-openssl and --disable-gnutls, have been replaced with the --with-tls switch
51 +   which takes one of the following options: 'openssl', 'wolfssl', 'gnutls', and 'none'.
52 +   If nothing has been specified, configure tries to autodetect in the following order:
53 +   openssl/libressl -> gnutls -> wolfssl.
54 + o) Fixed segfault with GnuTLS/libgmp in case there's no DH parameters file
55 +   defined in 'serverinfo::ssl_dh_param_file' or if that file is missing
56 + o) The connection timeout for connect{} blocks can now be configured via
57 +   the 'connect::timeout' configuration directive
58 + o) Minimum supported OpenSSL version is 1.1.1 now
59 + o) Minimum supported GnuTLS version is 3.6.5 now
60 + o) Supported TLSv1.3 cipher suites can now be configured explicitely via the
61 +   new 'serverinfo::tls_cipher_suites' configuration directive
62 + o) In the serverinfo {} block, the following configuration directives have been renamed:
63 +     ssl_certificate_file -> tls_certificate_file
64 +     ssl_dh_param_file -> tls_dh_param_file
65 +     ssl_dh_elliptic_curve -> tls_supported_groups
66 +     ssl_cipher_list -> tls_cipher_list
67 +     ssl_message_digest_algorithm -> tls_message_digest_algorithm
68 + o) In the operator {} block, the following configuration directives have been renamed:
69 +     ssl_certificate_fingerprint -> tls_certificate_fingerprint
70 +     ssl_connection_required -> tls_connection_required
71 + o) In the connect {} block, the following configuration directives have been renamed:
72 +     ssl_cipher_list -> tls_cipher_list
73 +     ssl_certificate_fingerprint -> tls_certificate_fingerprint
74 + o) For a full list of all changes in this release, see https://git.io/Jvq9g
75 +
76 +
77 + -- Noteworthy changes in version 8.2.26 (2019-05-31)
78 + o) The 'general::tkline_expire_notices' configuration directive has been
79 +   replaced with user mode 'X'. *LINE expiration notices are sent to IRC
80 +   operators with that mode set
81 + o) Fixed issue with '/rehash conf' creating duplicated class entries
82 +   instead of updating existing ones that are already in use
83 + o) For a full list of all changes in this release, see https://git.io/fjEbq
84 +
85 +
86 + -- Noteworthy changes in version 8.2.25 (2019-04-24)
87 + o) The 'class::number_per_ip', 'class::max_local' and 'class::max_global'
88 +   configuration directives have been replaced with just 'class::number_per_ip_local'
89 +   and 'class::number_per_ip_global'. The 'class::max_local' basically was
90 +   redundant as it had the same functionality as 'class::number_per_ip'
91 + o) Adding RESVs with wildcards no longer requires administrator privileges
92 + o) The 'general::ignore_bogus_ts' configuration option has been deprecated
93 + o) TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.0 are no longer supported and have been disabled in
94 +   the openssl and gnutls module
95 + o) Minimum supported OpenSSL version is 1.0.1f now
96 + o) Minimum supported GnuTLS version is 3.5.8 now
97 + o) The 'serverinfo::vhost' and 'serverinfo:vhost6' configuration directives have
98 +   been deprecated. If you need to bind() a specific address you can specify one
99 +   in the connect {} block
100 + o) The 'connect::vhost' configuration directive has been renamed to 'connect::bind'
101 + o) For a full list of all changes in this release, see https://git.io/fjRVk

129 +   configuraton option. This mode can be set only by irc-operators or servers.
130 + o) Implemented channel mode 'u' which hides bmask (+b/+e/+I) lists and mode changes
131 +   to non-chanops everywhere
132 + o) Fixed an issue with "TRACE" where remote servers would reply with RPL_TRACEUSER
133 +   numerics containing UIDs
