server protocol
- Add new BAN command, for propagated network-wide bans (K/X:lines and RESVs).
These will burst to new servers as they are introduced, and will stay in sync
across the whole network (new BAN capab).
- Add new MLOCK command, to implement ircd-side channel mode locks. This allows
services to send out a list of mode letters for a given channel which may not
be changed, preventing mode fights between services and client bots (new MLOCK
capab).
user
- New RPL_QUIETLIST(728) and RPL_ENDOFQUIETLIST(729) numerics are used for the
quiet (+q) list, instead of overloading the ban list numerics.
- Users may no longer change the topic of a -t channel if they cannot send to
it.
- Add help for EXTBAN, describing the syntax of extended bans in general, as
well as the most common types.
- Changed AWAY messages are now propagated to other servers. Previously, AWAY
was only propagated when the user was not already away.
- Channel mode +c (and other places that disallow colour codes) now also strip
ASCII 29 (mIRC 7 italics).
- Add auto-accept for user mode +g (callerid): Messaging a user while set +g
will automatically add them to your accept list.
oper
config
- Add general::use_propagated_bans to switch the new BAN system on or off.
- Add general::default_ident_timeout, to control the timeout for identd (auth)
connections.
- Fix class::number_per_ident so that it also applies to connections without
identd.
misc
- The custom channel mode API has been rewritten, allowing these modules to work
correctly when reloaded, or loaded from the config file.
- The EFNet RBL is now recommended, instead of DroneBL.
- Remove the unsupported modules directory.
- Numerous bug fixes and code cleanups.
