v2.0.7 released!
Posted by ~w00t on July 01, 2012

What's new

InspIRCd v2.0.7 is now available, containing a large number of fixes, including some crash issues. Upgrading is strongly recommended.

Thanks to @attilamolnar for his mammoth effort going into this release - thanks to his ongoing efforts, a followup 2.0 release will likely not be too far behind with some less crucial fixes and cleanups.

A 1.2 release will follow shortly with the crucial fixes, but again: it is reminded that 1.2 is essentially on “life support” at this stage. It is recieving minimal maintenence, and we do not expect this to last all that long. I have heard that some of the remaining 1.2 users have issues (whatever they are) with upgrading to 2.0 - we would very much like to hear these problems in the bug tracker, so they can be addressed.

A shortlog since the last release (2.0.6rc1) is attached for the curious.

  • Add testsuite tests for UID generation
  • m_showwhois Fix potential crash in WHOISNOTICE handler
  • Use socketengine functions for sending and receiving data instead of plain send() and recv() so /STATS z displays correct bandwidth usage
