ngIRCd Release 13
by Alexander Barton 26 Dec '08

26 Dec '08

Hi all! The next stable release of ngIRCd has been published: ngIRCd 13. Starting with this release, the version numering scheme has been canged: The leading "0" is stripped off, so we have "<major>[.<minor>]" now. So ngIRCd 13 is the direct successor of ngIRCd 0.12.1. The most prominet changes are support for SSL encrypted client-server and server-server links using OpenSSL or GNUTLS (see doc/SSL.txt), support for IRC services (see doc/Services.txt), and server-local channels with prefix "&". And as usual, lots of minor enhancements and bug fixes are included as well. Since the release candidate 13~rc1 only minor changes have been committed, mostly to enhance the documentation and to fix the testsuite. Thanks a lot to all contributors! In addition, the ngIRCd website has been revised.
