Eggdrop v1.8.0 Release Candidate 1
Hello fellow Eggheads!
It has been far too long, but the long awaited release of the first release candidate (RC) of Eggdrop version 1.8.0 is finally here! Among literally hundreds of smaller fixes, the biggest changes include v1.8.0 adds SSL and IPv6 support. These additions mean extra config file settings to use them, so while your old config file will still work, you may want to consider using the new eggdrop.conf included with this release.
Speaking of the config file, we've also brought back an old feature- eggdrop-basic.conf. This file is a simplified version of the standard eggdrop.conf targeted towards new users to make the first run a little less daunting. While this file is good for a quick start, we still strongly recommend you use the full eggdrop.conf to take advantage of all the features of Eggdrop.
If you were worried, fear not- TCL scripts written for v1.6 should still function with the v1.8 series of Eggdrop. While the core functionality of most 3rd party modules should still work, many are hard-coded to only run on a v1.6 Eggdrop. We have assembled a variety of popular third-party modules at ftp://ftp.eggheads.org/pub/eggdrop/modules/1.8/ and edited them to remove this restriction, thus allowing them to function with v1.8.
As this is an RC, we're depending on you to help us find those last few bugs before we declare 1.8.0 as stable. Please use it and report any bugs you find to https://github.com/eggheads/eggdrop/issues . We plan on leaving this comment period open for 2-3 weeks.
Finally, in celebration of our first release in five years, we have also given the Eggheads webpage a much-deserved makeover. We hope you like it!
