[Voodoo-circle-announce] VooDoo cIRCle 1.1.37 released

[Marian V. M. <gho...@us...>]

Greetings,

VooDoo cIRCle version 1.1.37 was just released.

From ChangeLog:

- Improvement: Reorganized channel sync on bot's JOIN. We first send
JOIN and WHO in CRITICAL priority, to make users in channel recognised
very soon.

- Improvement: Keepalive IRC server PING period increased from 30
seconds to 5 minutes (this could help in case of short network
connectivity loss, and in theory TCP retransmission would handle it).

- Improvement: Early on connect, the bot performs self-WHOIS to force
dynamic (re)binding of dynamic IP servers (e.g. DCC, telnet and so on),
even when bot will not JOIN any channel.

- Bug fix: On heavy-loaded machine, when using SSL IRC connection,
assertion failure on IRC authentication when IRC socket was already
closed by SSL subsystem due to server disconnect.

- Bug fix: Race condition was possible when heap debugging was turned on.

- Security: Windows binary distribution was using vulnerable OpenSSL
library.
