There's been a host of changes in the past six months, and this Halloween release has a number of very useful improvements.
For example, passwords are now hashed in a _much_ better way than we did it before (jlatt's original method back from [Ergonomadic](https://github.com/edmund-huber/ergonomadic) was the right way to do things), the database now auto-upgrades for you when it detects a new version, thanks to Slingamn we now have vhosts, and there's been a ton of rewrites under-the-hood to improve stability and performance.
If you have any trouble with this release, please let us know with an issue on our tracker, or by talking to us in `#oragono` on Freenode.
Thanks to [slingamn](https://github.com/slingamn) for a lot of heavy lifting this release and to [vilmibm](https://github.com/vilmibm) for contributing a documentation fix!
* Fixed `LUSERS` to make it display correct client count and output correct params (thanks [@moortens](https://github.com/moortens)!.
* Fixed `PROXY` support for IPv6 clients.
* Fixed `SAMODE` crash when using it on a channel you're not joined to.
* Fixed `WHOIS` so that `RPL_WHOISACCOUNT` is now sent correctly.
* Fixed fakelag timing to better match expected values.
* Fixed issue where incoming and outgoing private messages were being incorrectly modified (a space was being added to the end) due to a bug with our protocol handling.
* Fixed password hashing method, with existing passwords being auto-upgraded to use the new method.
And v0.11.0 finally comes along! This release has been in the works for almost four months now, with an alpha and beta helping square away the issues.
We're adding a lot of features to improve debugging, better support international users, and make things better for network administrators. Among the new features, you can use the `LANGUAGE` command to set a custom server language (see our [CrowdIn](https://crowdin.com/project/oragono) to contribute), expose a debugging `pprof` endpoint, reserve nicknames with `NickServ`, and force email verification for new user accounts. On the improvements side we have a `CAP REQ` fix, and we now have a manual that contains a nice overview of Oragono's documentation.

Thanks a bunch to everyone for the help with this release – especially to our translators and to Slingamn for being an awesome co-maintainer!
* Added fakelag, so that the server can slow down clients hitting it too aggressively. Disabled by default while we work out the kinks and the specific settings (thanks @slingamn!).
* Message IDs are now much shorter and easier to read –down from 39 characters to 16 while preserving a very similar gaurantee of uniqueness (thanks [@prawnsalad](https://github.com/prawnsalad) for bringing up this issue).
This patch fixes a couple bugs, updates cap/isupport token names in response to spec changes, and allows unprivileged users to list channel bans. Ah, DLINE and KLINE also store oper names, so you can see who set those pesky bans later on!
There has been a bunch of new changes in this release! From [`sts`](http://ircv3.net/specs/extensions/sts.html) being ratified to supporting [`WEBIRC`](ircv3.net/specs/extensions/webirc.html) to rewriting a whole lot of our internals, 0.10.0 represents a real step forward in terms of where Oragono's going.
In addition to the new features, this issue fixes a bunch of fairly large bugs (such as an errant `INVITE` being able to crash the server, the `+mR`channel modes not working at all, and making rehashing safer).
I'd like to thank @slingamn for really contributing a lot in this release! He's done a whole bunch of the internal work, cleaned up the code, and in general just been a great help while developing. Running Oragono on an actual network has really helped find and track down some serious bugs, and lead us to some much-needed improvements.
* Removed the `draft/message-ids` cap since... it doesn't actually exist. The feature is now enabled by default when clients request the `draft/message-tags-0.2` capability, as written in the [Message IDs spec](http://ircv3.net/specs/extensions/message-ids.html).
* Removed websocket support (conflicted with existing larger IRCd's implementations and not used by any real clients).
This is a patch release to fix compatibility with Irssi and resolve some issues! Thanks very much @dequis, @slingamn and squigz for the help and for bringing up the issues.
So many fixes! You can now set the default modes for new channels, use HAProxy again, use the umode `+R` to protect yourself against unwanted PMs, and we now warn on configurations/setups that look incorrect!
In addition, this release makes testing easier, makes sure we better adhere to the SASL specification and also removes some memory leaks around the place. All in all, just a solid upgrade and less bugs across the board.
* Added `allow-multiple-per-connection` flag under `accounts/registration`, which can be used for account setup by testing software. **Never enable it in production.**
* Added `default-modes` key under `channels`, which is a standard modestring that's applied to new channels.
* Added `proxy-allowed-from` key under `server`, which is a list of hostnames/IPs that the HAProxy `PROXY` command can be used from.
Just a patch release to fix a bug! The bug that's been fixed prevented you from modifying channel privilidges at all, which isn't great. With this release, now you can do so again!
With this release, we're moving to a proper [Github organisation](https://github.com/oragono), becoming more consistent with other IRCds, and introducing a bunch more snomasks. In addition, when setting `DLINE` and `KLINE` bans, you can also kill all clients who match the ban by supplying the parameter `ANDKILL` when you set the ban.
Channel `LIST` filtering is now more useful, and I'll keep expanding this in future releases. As well, there's been some useful extensions to `WHOIS`, and a bug with `SANICK` fixed thanks to @lbeziaud. @enckse has also added Oragono to the Arch AUR, to make it easier to install on that distro.
Thanks to everyone for suggesting improvements and reporting issues! There's a lot to do as we move forward, and I have a pretty decent plan of where to go next.
This release isn't too exciting, but packs large improvements to how we handle floods and similar issues. As well, the introduction of snomasks (take a look at `/HELPOP snomasks`) should help opers keep a basic view over their server during use. Only the `"c"` (connects) snomask is active right now, but others will be added and extended in future releases.
This is a patch release of Oragono to fix discovered bugs and crashes. I'll also be implementing some more stringent checks before pushing releases after this, to ensure these same sort of bugs don't happen again.
This release brings channel registration with ChanServ, logging improvements, and a whole host of improvements across the board.
Thanks to a suggestion by `dp-` on our channel (`#oragono` on Freenode), the socket handling code has been overhauled to allow for a larger number of more stable connections. As well, improved testing has brought with it a bunch of strange hang and crash fixes, which means that Oragono should be more stable than ever.
Channel registration is really cool. Essentially, you register the channel with `/CS REGISTER` as you would on any network, and then all topic changes, the `+b/+e/+I` lists, and your founder status, are all remembered and re-applied when the server's restarted.
We've added a ton of new features in this release! Automated connection throttling, the ability to `KLINE`, updated casemapping and line-length specifications.
I've also started including a new section in the changelog called **Config Changes**, which should help you find what you need to update across releases.
### Config Changes
*`enabled` key added under the `connection-limits` section.
*`connection-throttling` section added under `server`.
* Connection limits can now be freely enabled or disabled. If updating, check the new `enabled` flag under the `connection-limits` section of the config.
As well, there are some major fixes with the libraries Oragono depends on, which fix various DoS attacks, crashes and timeouts. In short, this release is more stable and fixes a bunch of issues.
This release also updates the database, so be sure to run the `oragono upgradedb` command.
This release packs a more extensive oper privelege framework, bugfixes for capabilities/modes, support for new RP commands and more `RPL_ISUPPORT` tokens. In general, a bunch of new features and bugfixes to make using Oragono more smooth.
* Added support for IRCv3 capabilities [`cap-notify`](http://ircv3.net/specs/extensions/cap-notify-3.2.html) and [`echo-message`](http://ircv3.net/specs/extensions/echo-message-3.2.html).
* Added support for IRCv3 capabilities [`account-notify`](http://ircv3.net/specs/extensions/account-notify-3.1.html), [`invite-notify`](http://ircv3.net/specs/extensions/invite-notify-3.2.html), [`monitor`](http://ircv3.net/specs/core/monitor-3.2.html), [`sasl`](http://ircv3.net/specs/extensions/sasl-3.2.html), and draft capability [`message-tags`](http://ircv3.net/specs/core/message-tags-3.3.html) as `draft/message-tags`.
* Added support for IRCv3 capabilities [`account-tag`](http://ircv3.net/specs/extensions/account-tag-3.2.html), [`away-notify`](http://ircv3.net/specs/extensions/away-notify-3.1.html), [`extended-join`](http://ircv3.net/specs/extensions/extended-join-3.1.html), [`sasl`](http://ircv3.net/specs/extensions/sasl-3.1.html), [`server-time`](http://ircv3.net/specs/extensions/server-time-3.2.html), and [`userhost-in-names`](http://ircv3.net/specs/extensions/userhost-in-names-3.2.html).
* Removed `THEATER` command (it broke and I'm not that interested in putting the work in to get it working again with the aim of this project. PRs accepted).
