+ ngIRCd 22~rc1
+ - Fix the function which generates complete "IRC masks" from user input,
+ don't destroy the source buffer and use all provided parts (nick, user,
+ host name). This fixes GLINEs/KLINEs from not working in some situations.
+ - Increase MAX_SERVERS from 16 to 64: There are installations out there
+ that would like to configure more than 16 links per server, so increase
+ this limit. Best would be to get rid of MAX_SERVERS altogether and make
+ if fully dynamic, but start with this quick and dirty hack ...
+ - Debian: Don't adjust path names that are correct by default and correctly
+ set and use "docdir".
+ - Update config.guess and config.sub to recent versions.
+ - Test suite/platformtest.sh: Detect when tests have been skipped.
+ - doc/Bopm.txt: Update "connregex" and "kline" for current ngIRCd.
+ - Allow "DefaultUserModes" to set all possible modes, including modes only
+ settable by IRC Operators.
+ - Spoofed prefixes: Really kill connection on non-server links.
+ - Implement user mode "F": "relaxed flood protection". Clients with mode "F"
+ set are allowed to send data to the daemon. This mode is only settable by
+ IRC Operators and can cause problems in the network -- so be careful and
+ only set it on "trusted" clients!
+ User mode "F" is used by Bahamut for this purpose, for example.
+ - Handle "throttling" in a single function: ngIRCd implements "command
+ throttling" and "bps throttling" (bytes per second). The states are
+ detected in different functions, Conn_Handler() and Read_Request(), but
+ handle the actual "throttling" in a common function: this enables us to
+ guarantee consistent behavior and to disable throttling for special
+ connections in only one place
+ - Use server password when PAM is compiled in but disabled.
+ - Streamline punctuation of log messages.
+ - Return ISUPPORT(005) numerics on "VERSION". This is how ircd-seven,
+ Charybdis, Hybrid, and InspIRCd behave, for example.
+ - configure: Only link "contrib/Debian" if it exists, which isn't the case
+ on "VPATH builds", for example.
+ - Show the account name in WHOIS. This uses the same numeric as Charybdis
+ and ircu families: WHOISLOGGEDIN(330).
+ - Pattern matching: Remove "range matching" in our pattern matching code
+ using the "[...]" syntax, because [ and ] are valid characters in nick
+ names and one has to quote them currently using the "\" character, which
+ is quite unexpected for users.
+ - platformtest.sh: New option "-x", don't regenerate build system and
+ allow using separate source and build trees.
+ - Test suite: explicitly enable glibc memory checking.
+ - Make "MODE -k" handling more robust and compatible, send "fake '*' key"
+ in all replies.
+ - Update configure.ng: ngIRCd requires GNU autoconf 2.61 for generating its
+ build system, so update the build system accordingly and implement all
+ changes that autoupdate(1) suggests: Update AC_PREREQ and AC_INIT, use
+ AC_LINK_IFELSE, AC_RUN_IFELSE, and AC_COMPILE_IFELSE, and remove
+ AC_TYPE_SIGNAL (we don't use RETSIGTYPE).
+ - portabtest: Actually test the functions snprintf(), strlcpy(), strlcat(),
+ and vsnprintf() for correctness, not only existence (which was quite
+ useless, because if they weren't available, the program could not have
+ been linked at all ...).
+ - Implement new configuration option "Network": it is used to set the
+ (completely optional) "network name", to which this instance of the
+ daemon belongs. When set, this name is used in the ISUPPORT(005) numeric
+ which is sent to all clients connecting to the server after logging in.
+ - Update doc/Platforms.txt.
+ - Various code cleanups, remove unused code, streamline error handling.
+ Remove all imp.h and exp.h header files, support non-standard vsnprintf()
+ return codes, and fix some K&R C portability issues. Streamline
+ DEBUG_ARRAY, DEBUG_BUFFER, DEBUG_IO, DEBUG_ZIP definitions.
+ - Increase penalty time to 10 seconds when handling OPER commands with an
+ invalid password.
