Er is een nieuwe ontwikkelversie van Anope uitgebracht. Anope is een verzameling irc-services die aan een irc-daemon kunnen worden gehangen. Zo kent Anope onder meer een 'nickserv' en 'chanserv', waarmee respectievelijk gebruikers en kanalen te beheren zijn door zowel de gebruikers als de operators. Ook de irc-server van Tweakers.net maakt gebruik van Anope. De release notes voor versie 1.9.7 zien er als volgt uit:
Some of the highlights include:
- Added regex support for many commands, such as akill, sqline, snline, and all of the */list commands.
- Extended the ability of akill to match against a full nick!user@host and real name of users.
- Added nickserv:registration configuration option to configure how new accounts are verified.
- Added nickserv:unregistered_notice configuration option to send a custom message to unregistered users on connect.
- Added chanserv:require configuration option to set which modes must be on all registered channels.
- Added options:casemap configuration option to choose how case insensitive strings are compared, using ASCII, rfc1459, or a locale installed on the system.
- db_sql_live now makes all SQL tables "live", not just a select few.
- Added modules m_httpd and webcpanel, which provides a web based control panel for users to register, control settings on their nicknames, channels, and memos.
This is still very much a work in progress. If you would like to contribute by improving or creating new templates, or by adding new features to the web panel, feel free to contact us at irc://irc.anope.org/anope.
