Hi All!

We are going to test the next release of ngIRCd, version 0.10.2. Here it is:

ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/ngircd/ngircd-0.10.2-pre1.tar.gz ftp://ngircd.barton.de/pub/ngircd/ngircd-0.10.2-pre1.tar.gz

The GnuPG signature and a patch from 0.9.2 is available and can be downloaded from here:

ftp://ngircd.barton.de/pub/ngircd/

This pre-release is tagged as "rel-0-10-2-pre1" in CVS (the branch for the 0.10.x releases is named "branch-0-10-x").

Changes since ngIRCd 0.10.1 are:

- Fix compressed server links (broken since 0.10.0). - Predefined Channel configuration now allows specification of channel key (mode k) and maximum user count (mode l). - When using epoll() IO interface, compile in the select() interface as well and fall back to it when epoll() isn't available on runtime. - New configure option "--without-select" to disable select() IO API (even when using epoll(), see above). - Added support for IO APIs "poll()" and "/dev/poll". - Reorganized internal handling of invite and ban lists.

Please test this release and let us know which problems you encounter and which changes should be made for the final 0.10.2 release. Thanks!

Regards Alex
