ngIRCd version 13 released

Friday, December 26th, 2008

The ngIRCd project has announced the availability of a new stable version of their IRCd, version 13.

Starting with this release “the leading “0″ is stripped off, so we have  “<major>[.<minor>]” now. So ngIRCd 13 is the direct successor of  ngIRCd 0.12.1.”

A lot of progress has been made since the last stable release, 0.12.1 – the biggest changes are support for SSL encrypted connections both between servers and clients to servers using either OpenSSL or GnuTLS. The IRCd now also supports local-server channels that are prefixed with & instead of global #-prefixed channels.
