If you're upgrading from a ! 5.0.3 or earlier release, you should know that we've totally ! ditched the userlist system and rebuilt it from scratch. ! New system is login/pass based, but you can add 'secure' ! hostmasks if you dont want to put in a pass. All the ambiguity ! surrounding accesses and handles is gone, AND, 5.1 automatically upgrades ! from 5.0.3 data files too, so theres no hassle. It works quite differently ! from before however, so it will take some adjustment on the part of your ! users. + We also totally rewrote alomst every internal function to pass and accept + references rather then passing individual strings around; the result + we lookup information WAY less, use less memory, and (can you believe + it) even less CPU then before. + + Some of the many new features: + * Improved wingate checking. Also can scan for sub7 connections + * New auto-routing feature, can "smartly" reconnect servers according + to a map provided by you. + * More secure userlist scheme + * time limited channel suspensions with reason field and logging. + * Automatically deletes unused channels and logs them. + * crash problems with the calc command fixed + * Now uses autoconf to create makefiles etc. + * Help files support variable substitution for network, x2nick, cmdchar, etc + * Spell checked everything + * Fixed hash size limit handling + * Internal optimizations + * Added support for run's P10 server protocol + http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/irc/P10.html + Currently ONLY universal ircd (http://www.sf.net/projects/ircu) + supports this. + * Nolonger supports P9 (undernet 2.10.07 or lower) ircd's. + * Nolonger supports Hybrid TS4 servers. ---------- Changes in 5.0.3 -------- |
