Announcing 2.10.2



I am pleased to announce version 2.10.2 of the IRC Software.

  Support for IPv6 available in release 2.9.5+IPv6 has been
integrated in this version making it the first of the 2.10
serie to be able to run on IPv6 systems.

  While this version brings no new feature, it fixes many bugs
present in the previous releases.  In particular users will
notice that the channel modes 'a' and 'r' can now be set on
!channels.

  Admins will be happy to know that several rarely occuring
bugs present in the compressed link code have been fixed.  A
2.10 problem causing link connections to be slow has been
identified and resolved.  The internal resolver code was
brought up to date with BIND version 4.9.7-REL source.

  Finally, it is to be noted that the anti open SOCKS detection
has been significantly improved, will detect v4 relays (which
cover most v5 relays as they are usually backward compatible),
and will no longer report closed relays as open.

The complete and detailed list of changes is held in ChangeLog.
