Eggdrop v1.8.4.rc1 Release Notes

Release Date: 2018-12-12 // over 5 years ago
  • 🚀 It has been just under 11 months since 1.8.3, and we are happy to announce the first release candidate for Eggdrop v1.8.4! The major changes in the release include:

    • 👀 Lots of work on the compile process for less-commonly seen systems (SunOS, DragonFly, etc), and making Eggdrop more compiler-friendly in general
    • ➕ Added and enhanced SSL/TLS warnings to make troubleshooting easier
    • Raised the ban expiration limit from 1 year to 5 years, and added a new %y field to +ban
    • Lots of work on TLS bot links
    • 👌 Improved/clarified botnet TLS documentation- go read it!
    • 🖨 Made TLS fingerprints persistent across a botnet after relinking
    • Sterilized a LOT of small, lingering bugs.

    We'd also like to welcome mortmann to the Eggheads team- a BIG piece of what you're looking at for 1.8.4 is thanks to a lot of hard work in both finding and fixing a lot of issues in Eggdrop the rest of us have been too lazy too busy to fix. Thank you mortmann!

    🚀 Please provide feedback on this release candidate via Issues or on Freenode #eggdrop. If everyone stays off the naughty list, you'll have 1.8.4 stable for a Christmas present!
