The biggest improvement probably is that the client now offers “basic SSL support” which is still marked being beta at this point.

A whole host of new parameters for better customization has been added – you now can predefine the ident, realname and quitmessage the client uses. Also a new translation has been added, lightIRC now speaks Polish ;)

A detailed changelog as well as the download can be found here.

InspIRCd stable 1.2.3 released

Friday, February 5th, 2010

The InspIRCd stable tree has a new release and is now available as version 1.2.3.

The new version is mostly a bugfix release and developer danieldg cites “clone counting on CGI:IRC” as the “biggest fix this time, along with a bug letting users change to Q:lined nicks on their local server”.

Another bugfix worth mentioning is the fix for a memory leak in SetSockAddr that could be triggered by CGI:IRC clients – but there also have been feature additions, for example support for accountname-based InvEx extended bans (+I R:accountname)

The complete changelog as well as the link to the download can be found here.

They are “highly configurable, with nearly all options being set in a config that can be rehashed rather than set at compile time. It also uses the SQLite database backend, which works as a database interface to a normal file, meaning no seperate database software must be running”.

The new version, aside from various bugfixes, also contains a fix for a potential user-triggerable crashbug.
