closing that PR. Thanks to Lubomir Sedlacik.
Changes between 0.9.1 and 0.9.2
===============================
* Fixed a bug in client to close the connection properly when
disconnecting from server and fixed some error checkings from
the SFTP library which caused misbehaviour.
* Added SILC_MESSAGE_FLAG_UTF8 to the protocol specs and the
core library, and implemented it. All textual messages SHOULD
use this flag and the message MUST be UTF-8 encoded.
All text messages sent by Irssi SILC client are now UTF-8
encoded (regardless whether the terminal supports UTF-8 or not).
* Implemented the SILC_CHANNEL_UMODE_QUIET mode that can be used
to silence a user on a channel.
* Added new "debug" and "debug_string" settings to Irssi SILC
client which can be used to print runtime debugging on the
Irssi's screen. Available when compiled with --enable-debug
* Made the private key generation after expiration optional.
If not created after expiration the old key will re-expire
at a later time (and thus key pair is not necessary to
change).
* Display the user mode on the status bar.
* Display notification about data messages that cannot be
displayed. (e.g. image/jpeg)
closing this PR. Thank to Lubomir Sedlacik.
Changes from 0.9.1 to 0.9.2
===========================
* Support for multiple interfaces so now it's possible e.g. to listen
on IPv4 and IPv6 within one daemon incarnation.
WARNING: you will need to update your silcd.conf to reflect changes!
* Added lots of new statistics updating that was missing from the
server and router code. Sending SIGUSR1 signal to server now dumps
the current server statistics into /tmp directory.
* Implemented the SILC_CHANNEL_UMODE_QUIET mode that can be used
to silence a user on a channel.
* Fixed various fatal bugs,in handling of malformed command payload,
double free when announcing channel users to router, missing
parameter in a function call that caused server crash when
a non-allowed connection arrived.
* Fixed some backup data sending around the code to work better
if the router is standalone router and fixed the router connectin
when connecting to multiple routers.
* Fixed detach timeout handling to use Client ID and not the actual
client entry which may be freed in the callback.
Goofey is a program which provides many services by communicating
with a central server Pluto. Services provided by goofey include
remote user location, message sending, fortune provision, jargon
file lookup and a timetable service.
Goofey is the preferred mode of communciation of many people, as
it combines the immediacy of talk(1) and the asyncronous nature of
mail(1). That is, you will know if messages sent with goofey have
been received by the recipient almost immediately. Goofey also
provides facilies for users to supply finger type information, an
'away' message for when you are away, a 'quiet' message for when
you are busy or away from the terminal, in fact just about everything
that people have been put up a good case for being included in the
server.
This is a really simple module for communicating with a Goofey server.
Goofey is a bit like IRC and a bit like ICQ and a bit like email, it's
used mostly at Monash University. See the Goofey web page at:
http://www.cs.monash.edu.au/~tym/goofey.html
Looks like noone ever tried to used it, because it was badly broken and
wouldn't even be compiled in, due too a missing include of mk/bsd.prefs.mk.
So, no need to bump the pkgversion to nb1.
in pkg/16903.

* Fixed USERS command to support empty channels.
* Check the watcher list before sending signoff notifys
when closing client connection.
* Added better CMODE command rights checking.
* Fixed watcher list checking during server signoff. It
crashed the server.
* The JOIN command reply returns now the founder's public
key.
* Announce the channel mode, and the mode properties with
CMODE_CHANGE notify.
* Mark new channels by default disabled, untill at least
one user joins the channel.
* The nickname argument to watch notify can be optional.
Fixes a crash in server.

* Added the founder's public key delivery to the
CUMODE_CHANGE notify type as well. Updated the protocol
specs and the code.
* Added support for sending the founder's public key in
the CMODE_CHANGE notify packet in the server.
* Changed the FOUNDER_AUTH authentication to use only
public key authentication as defined by new protocol
specs. Passphrase authentication with that mode cannot
be used anymore. It is now possible to reclaim founder
mode from any server in the network.
* Added permanent channels support by making the channel
permanent when FOUNDER_AUTH mode is set on the channel.
The channel will not be destroyed even if channel is empty
when that mode is set. Protocol TODO #17.
* Added BLOCK_INVITE user mode to be able to block incoming
invite notifications. Protoocol TODO #26.
* Disconnect Payload includes now the status type. Updated
the protocol specs and the code. Protocol TODO #25.
* Defined that the nickname hash in Client ID MUST be from
lowercase nickname. This effectively changes nicknames in
SILC to case-insensitive. Updated the protocol specs and
the code.
* Added new channel user modes BLOCK_MESSAGES_USERS and
BLOCK_MESSAGES_ROBOTS. Updated the protocol specs and the
code.
* Added support for watch list. It is possible to add nicknames
to be watched, and when they come to network, leave network
or user mode changes the watcher will be notified of this
change. Added SILC_COMMAND_WATCH command, added new
notify type SILC_NOTIFY_TYPE_WATCH to deliver the watch
notifications. Updated the protocol specs and implemented
this to library, client and server. Protocol TODO #21.
* Fixed a bug in the pid writing function, which couldn't be
written in a root-owned directory.
* Added detach_disabled and detach_timeout server config
options to the server.
* Defined that server receives WHOIS command reply for private
and secret channels too. Updated protocol specs and the
code in server.
* Defined <channel user mode list> argument to WHOIS command
reply for returning user modes on the channels. The
channel list now doesn't include the user mode anymore but the
actual channel mode. Updated protocol specs and the code in
client and server.
* Save the channels list in WHOIS command reply in normal server
so that WHOIS always shows joined channels also in normal
server and not just on router.
* Defined that server receives USERS command reply for private
and secret channels too. Updated protocol specs and the
code in server.
* Changed the UMODE's mode mask argument to be optional. If
not provided then the command merely returns the current mode
mask to the client.
* Added SILC session detachment/resuming support. It is possible
to detach by closing the network connection and then re-connect
and resume to the old client session. Added DETACHED user
mode that server will set for detached client. Added new
packet RESUME_CLIENT which is used to perform the resuming
process. Added DETACH command. Updated the protocol specs,
core library, client and server. Protocol TODO #22.
* Changed the CMODE's mode mask argument to be optional. If
not provided then the command merely returns the current mode
mask to the client. Updated protocol specs and the server.
* Added new user modes ANONYMOUS for special anonymous servers
that may set the mode for client, and BLOCK_PRIVMSG which
client may set to block incoming private messages unless the
Private Message Key flag is set (using private keys to protect
private messages). Updated protocol specs and code in client
and server and core library. Protocol TODO #23.
* Added new channel user mode BLOCK_MESSAGES which the client
may set to itself to tell server not send channel messages.
Other packets such as channel key packets are still sent.
Protocol TODO #23. Updated the protocol specs, client and
server.
* Fixed a bug in the fetch_logging() config callback.
* Drop root privileges when started in foreground. Don't drop them
if debugging also.
* Added STATS command to the protocol after all, to return
various statistical information about the network. It can
be used by clients to retrieve statistical information, and
servers may use it to to fetch cell and network wide
statistics from router. Updated the protocol specs and
implemented it to the server. Protocol TODO #16.
* Rewrote the version SKE version checking in client libary
and in server to use the silc_parse_version_string.
* Added two new channel modes: SILC_CMODE_SILENCE_USERS
and SILC_CMODE_SILENCE_OPERS which can be used to moderate
the channel. Updated protocol specs and impelemented this
to client and server. Protocol TODO #6.
* Deprecated all administrative commands from SILC protocol
since they are highly implementation specific commands.
Updated protocol specs. Moved the old commands in
implementations to private range of command types.
* Fixed a bug in server where sending unknown command crashes
the server.
* Fixed the rekey protocol with PFS, which was totally broken.
* Merged version 1.1.4 of zlib. Even if it not currently in use,
it's good not to have security holes here.
* Fixed a negative refcount situtuation for the config context.
Affected file is silcd/serverconfig.c.
changes in silc-server package:
===============================
- removed INSTALL file, don't generate server keys during installation,
if missing, generate them on server startup
Patch contributed by Lubomir Sedlacik <salo@Xtrmntr.org> in PR 16981
* Call the completion for resolving client information only
after all resolvers has finished. This fixes a crash in
the client. Added support for checking when the resolvers
are finished.
* Wait by default 3 seconds before reconnecting to the server
after being disconnected. Makes the /detach command a bit
more usable.
* Remove the client entry from cache if the WATCH notify type
is KILLED, SERVER_SIGNOFF or SIGNOFF.
* Fixed a crash in OPER and SILCOPER command sending. Empty
passphrase caused the crash.
* Merged with Irssi CVS for Irssi SILC client.
* Added permanent channels support by making the channel
permanent when FOUNDER_AUTH mode is set on the channel.
The channel will not be destroyed even if channel is empty
when that mode is set. Protocol TODO #17.
* Fixed rekey protocol with PFS in the client library.
* Fixed client info resolving on LEAVE command in client
library to not crash.
* Defined that the NICK command replies with thew changed
nickname too, to make the nickname changing simpler at
the client's end. Updated protocol specs and the code
in client and server.
* Remove pending command callbacks also if the connection
to the server is destroyed.
* Added new channel user modes BLOCK_MESSAGES_USERS and
BLOCK_MESSAGES_ROBOTS. Updated the protocol specs and the
code.
* Added support for watch list. It is possible to add nicknames
to be watched, and when they come to network, leave network
or user mode changes the watcher will be notified of this
change. Added SILC_COMMAND_WATCH command, added new
notify type SILC_NOTIFY_TYPE_WATCH to deliver the watch
notifications. Updated the protocol specs and implemented
this to library, client and server. Protocol TODO #21.
* Added user mode SILC_UMODE_REJECT_WATCHING to reject
somebody watching you. Updated the protocol specs and the
code.
* Added MIME header parsing in Irssi SILC Client. It displays
all textual MIME objects, others it ignores.
* Defined <channel user mode list> argument to WHOIS command
reply for returning user modes on the channels. The
channel list now doesn't include the user mode anymore but the
actual channel mode. Updated protocol specs and the code in
client and server.
* Added SILC session detachment/resuming support. It is possible
to detach by closing the network connection and then re-connect
and resume to the old client session. Added DETACHED user
mode that server will set for detached client. Added new

Protocol TODO #23. Updated the protocol specs, client and
server.
* Added more IM-like features by introducing new user modes
for setting various presence information. Added new modes:
INDISPOSED, BUSY, PAGE, HYPER and ROBOT. Updated protocol
specs and code. Protocol TODO #19.
* The LIST command reply in client libary now adds new channel
entry if the returned channel doesn't exist yet in cache,
and returns the channel entry to the application in the
command_reply client operation.
* Rewrote the version SKE version checking in client libary
and in server to use the silc_parse_version_string.
* Added two new channel modes: SILC_CMODE_SILENCE_USERS
and SILC_CMODE_SILENCE_OPERS which can be used to moderate
the channel. Updated protocol specs and impelemented this
to client and server. Protocol TODO #6.
Added new options m and M to CMODE command in Irssi SILC
client to set these modes.
* Deprecated all administrative commands from SILC protocol
since they are highly implementation specific commands.
Updated protocol specs. Moved the old commands in
implementations to private range of command types.
* Some client implementations quit network by doing first LEAVE
and then immediately SIGNOFF (like Bombyx). We now do check
after a short time after LEAVE notify and check whether the
client is still valid after LEAVE, and if not we remove it from
cache.
Patch submitted by Lubomir Sedlacik <salo@Xtrmntr.org> in PR 16980.
Changed (defined @tci_buddies) to (@tci_buddies) in
toc_chat_invite. Fixed a potential infinite loop in
set_srv_buddies involving an off-by-one error in a for() test.
Thanks to Bruce Winter for pointing this out.
Changed the way that Net::AOLIM sends the login command string
because AOL apparently changed their server software, breaking
the previous implementation. The new method requires that only
the user agent string be in double quotes; all other fields
should not be quoted. Note that this does not affect the user
interface at all---it's all handled internally. Thanks to Bruce
Winter, Fred Frey, Aryeh Goldsmith, and tik for help in tracking
down and fixing this error.
Also added additional checks to read_sflap_packet so that if the
other end of the connection dies we don't go into an infinite
loop. Thanks to Chris Nelson for pointing this out.
bump version, so bump to 0.4.1 locally.
Changes:
o Fixed bug with changing contacts' statuses to offline
while saving config
o Security fix $HOME/.vicq will have 0700 permissions while
creating
changes in silc-server package:
===============================
- upgraded to version 0.8.4
- added generic startup script for Solaris and Linux (i can't test it on
Darwin/Mac OS X because i don't have any.. please let me know if it works
for you. thanks)
You will need to copy ${PREFIX}/etc/rc.d/silcd to appropriate location in
your system and do neccessary actions to enable it.
e.g. Solaris: copy ${PREFIX}/etc/rc.d/silcd to /etc/init.d/ and make links
in /etc/rc2.d/, /etc/rc1.d/, /etc/rc0.d/.
changes in silc-server since 0.8.1:
===================================
* Fixed a bug in library where sending a bogus authentication
payload would lead to a crash.
* Fixed a bug in the fetch_logging() config callback.
* Drop root privileges when started in foreground. Don't drop them
if debugging also.
* Added better error logging in rekey protocol.
* Do not check public key types in SKE during rekey.
* Fixed the rekey protocol with PFS, which was totally broken.
* Fixed a negative refcount situtuation for the config context.
* Fixed memory leaks from config object.
* Added support for adding new connections to the server in rehash.
After rehash they take effect.
* Added support for changing the maximum allowed connections in
rehash. The number can grow but going smaller is not supported.
* Added preliminary checking during config parsing for a valid
public/private key and removed further checks in the code.
* Fixed silc_net_gethostbyaddr to correctly resolve by
address.
* Fixed the notify relaying to client. The HMAC to be used
with relayed packets ws wrong and caused decryption failure
at the client end.
* Fixed the silc_log_quick handling in the logging routines.
It didn't log quickly when it was TRUE. Also the flush delay
was set even if it was 0 in config file.
* Added support for changing key pair of the server in rehash.
* Fixed the TOPIC_SET notify to not crash. It changed the topic
too early, before getting the channel entry.
* Added rehash support. Added function silc_server_rehash() that
will perform all the basic tasks of the rehashing procedure.
* Added command line option `-x, --hexdump'. This will enable the
SILC_LOG_HEXDUMP calls that are no longer enabled with `--debug'.
The option `--hexdump' implies `--debug'.
* Fixed a bad bug in the logging APIs (silcutil library) where
the application would crash after calling silc_log_reset_all().

changes in the silc-client package:
===================================
- upgraded to 0.8.6
- separate PLIST files for perl support and crypto modules
- make it compile on Solaris
- minor cleanups
changes in the silc-client since 0.8.3:
=======================================
* Merged irssi crash fixes on /QUIT.
* Fixed a bug in library where sending a bogus authentication
payload would lead to a crash.
* Do not check public key types in SKE during rekey.
* Fixed the Irssi SILC Client to use the silc_get_username and
silc_get_real_name insted of glib routines since the glib
routines only corrupt stack. Fixes the Irssi SILC to work in
Cygwin.
* Fixed the Irssi to not use g_get_home_dir since it crashes
or returns garbage on cygwin and corrupts stack. Added function
get_home_dir to Irssi routines.
* Fixed the KICKED notify handling in client library to
correctly remove the channel and all entries from the
channel when I was kicked. This bug crashed the client.
* Fixed yet another but in KICKED notify handling to remove
the kicked client correctly from the channel.
* Fixed the lib/silcmath/Makefile.am to include the MPI and GMP
sources correctly to distribution. Fixes --with-gmp option.
* Removed the manual rehashing from ID Cache, and changed it
to use the SILC Hash Table's auto rehash feature.
* Fixed a bug in the silc_client_nickname_format function that
handles the multiple same nickname formatting. Two clients
with same nickname caused problems after the first one left
and rejoined. It didn't format the nickname correctly.
