2008-02-07 Arnaud Cornet What's to expect in bip now: - Support kill -HUP and /bip reload cleanly. - Close/reopen files on sighup. - Have some reply when running BIP commands. ssl_check_mode, always_backlog, backlog, bl_msg_only, backlog_lines, backlog_no_timestamp, blreset_on_talk be settable at the connection block rather than the user block. - Add backlog option to channels. Useful if you don't care about one particular channel. - bip_use_notice: Add this option to receive bip message through notices. - Make SSL "basic" certificate check more loose (more SSH-like). In "basic" mode, normally un trusted certificates get to be trusted if they manually trusted by user. This provides an SSH like private key auth mechani Expired certificates were considered invalid in this mode which does not make much sense. - blreset: add -q option to /bip blreset command if you don't want it to reply anything (for scripts). - Support add_conn and del_conn bip commands for live connection addition and removal. - Have a bold arrow to highligh your own word on private messages and multiple connected clients. 09-12-2007: Bip has now two types of users "admins" and normal user. Some commands are reserved to admin. Add a admin = true; statement in your config (in user block) accordingly. 29-10-2007: Certificate validation change. In "basic" mode, expired certificates are now accepted as long as they are in store (therefore trusted). This makes the basic mode be more SSH like. Some extreme security zealots might want to be warned. 02-09-2007: as of now log parameters go in the user {} statment. This breaks every config and there is no backwrads compatibility as of now. Lots of internal changes, expect crashes.
