+ngIRCd 27
-
-  - Update ChangeLog, NEWS, AUTHORS.md & doc/Platforms.txt for ngIRCd 27.
-  - Clarify in the sample configuration file and the ngircd.conf(5) manual
-    page that the "CAFile" option is unset by default.
-  - Fix channel symbol returned in the RPL_NAMREPLY(353) numeric of NAMES
-    commands for secret (mode +s) channels: this should be "@", not "=".
-    Thanks Val Lorentz <progval+git@progval.net> for the patch!
-    Closes #313.
-  - Add an example filter file for "Fail2Ban": contrib/ngircd-fail2ban.conf.
-  - Don't abort startup when setgid/setuid() fails with EINVAL: Both setgid(2)
-    as well as setuid(2) can fail with EINVAL in addition to EPERM, their
-    manual pages state "EINVAL: The user/group ID specified in uid/gid is not
-    valid in this user namespace ". So not only treat EPERM as an "acceptable
-    error" and continue with logging the error, but do the same for EINVAL.
-    This was triggered by the Void Linux xbps-uunshare(1) tool used for
-    building "XBPS source packages" and reported by luca in #ngircd. Thanks!
-  - Test suite: Don't use "pgrep -u" when LOGNAME and USER are not set
-    Thanks for reporting this on IRC, luca!
