Atheme 1.0 has finally gone to release candidate status!!!
We have basically improved many things since 0.3, and hope you check out the 1.0 branch if you were disappointed with previous releases.
Questions -> irc.atheme.org, #atheme as usual.
| Code: | Atheme 1.0rc1 Release Notes
===========================
- Add capabilities to protocol modules:
- forced nick change (aka SVSNICK)
- invite
- channel op notice (aka WALLCHOPS)
- Don't unkline temp akills if they have already expired.
- AKILL wildcard checking changed to ratbox algorithm.
- Further simplification of access checking.
- Hostmask access entries now check vhost, not host. This means services
cloaks now work in access lists.
- InspIRCd module updated to beta6 and above (tree linking instead of mesh).
- For akicks, use a matching +b'ed hostmask if possible.
- For ircds with dalnet-like +r umodes, don't set it for userserv.
- Add /cs forcexop to reset access levels to xOP values. Useful if CA_?OP
are changed.
- Make CA_?OP configurable in atheme.conf.
- Add channel_info hook on /cs info.
- Add per-channel flags templates. Templates can be specified in the flags
command, avoiding the need to memorize complicated flags strings.
Templates are manipulated with the TEMPLATE command which is similar to the
FLAGS command. The xOP levels can also be used as templates.
- Add per-channel fantasy command disable.
- Fix NEVEROP and NOOP options.
- If fantasy commands are globally disabled, mark services clients as "deaf"
for some ircds.
- Add /cs set verbose ops, works like /cs set verbose on but only shows to
channel ops.
- Allow users to remove their own access from channels (except akicks of
course).
- Some improvements to network I/O.
- Add support for permanent (+P) channels in charybdis/hyperion/shadowircd.
- Add support for more FHS-like paths (not really complete but should still
be helpful for packagers).
- Add fine grained services operator privileges. IRCops get certain
privileges, and registered accounts can be granted privileges. This
works via atheme.conf. You will need to redo the operator part of your
configuration. See the new example.conf and doc/PRIVILEGES for more
information.
- Add message translation support.
- /cs voice/halfop/op now notifies the target user who did it.
- /cs flags mentions who gave the command in the verbose notice.
- Remove many redundant confirming notices.
- Regardless of join_chans/leave_chans, join chanserv temporarily to
channels which would otherwise be empty to enforce akick or staffonly.
- Add nickserv enforcement (FNC users who do not identify in time) to
contrib.
- Drastically improve P10 support.
- Add solidircd support.
- Add support for ban exceptions and other ban-like modes.
- Remove possibilities to log in to accounts without password by changing
nick during a netsplit on an ircd that does not clear +r (or similar) on
nick changes.
- Various minor tweaks and bugfixes. |
After the 1.0 release, we will be primarily working on a next generation version of Atheme (Atheme 2.0), codenamed athemex, meaning that 1.0.x will become a stable branch only. We hope to see you using athemex soon, however. 
This does not mean we are abandoning the 1.x branch... we will continue to support it until 2.0 is mainstream.
