+  ngIRCd 24~rc1
+  - Log privilege violations and failed OPER request with log level "error"
+    and send it to the "&SERVER" channel, too.
+  - Immediately shut down connection when receiving an "ERROR" command,
+    don't wait for the peer to close the connection. This allows the daemon
+    to forward the received "ERROR" message in the network, instead of the
+    very generic "client closed connection" message.
+  - Fix sending of entry duration (no negative values!) when synchronizing
+    "x-lines" (G-LINES).
+  - List expiration (G-LINES): use same log level as when setting, and log
+    this event to the &SERVER channel, too.
+  - Explicitly forbid remote servers to modify "x-lines" (G-LINES) when the
+    "AllowRemoteOper" configuration option isn't set, even when the command
+    seems to originate from the remote server itself: this prevents GLINE's
+    to become set during server handshake in this case (what wouldn't be
+    possible during regular runtime when a remote IRC Op sends the command)
+    and what can't be undone by IRC Ops later on (because of the missing
+    "AllowRemoteOper" option) ...
+  - Make scripts and init-files in ./contrib executable.
+  - Fix building ngIRCd with OpenSSL 1.1. Thanks to Christoph Biedl
+    <ngircd.anoy@manchmal.in-ulm.de> for the patch!
+  - Fix code indentation warnings of gcc 6.2.
+  - Update config.guess (2016-04-02) and config.sub (2016-03-30) files.
+  - Fix warnings of the "shellcheck" linter in autogen.sh, contrib/ngindent
+    and contrib/platformtest.sh.
+  - Update Xcode project for latest Xcode version (8.0), and fix "duplicate
+    symbols" error messages when building (linking) the binary.
+  - Add "Documentation" variables to systemd configuration files.
+  - Make sure that SYSCONFDIR is always set, which can be handy when
+    using source code linters when ./configure hasn't been run already.
+  - Add the new "PAMServiceName" configuration option to specify the name
+    used as PAM service name. This setting allows to run multiple ngIRCd
+    instances with different PAM configurations for each instance.
+    Thanks to Christian Aistleitner <christian@quelltextlich.at> for the
+    patch, closes #226.
+  - Add an ".editorconfig" file to the project.
+  - Travis-CI: use "container-based infrastructure".
+  - Limit the number of message targets, and suppress duplicates: This
+    prevents an user from flooding the server using commands like this:
+    "PRIVMSG nick1,nick1,nick1,...".
+    Duplicate targets are suppressed silently (channels and clients).
+    In addition, the maximum number of targets per PRIVMSG, NOTICE, ...
+    command are limited to MAX_HNDL_TARGETS (25). If there are more, the
+    daemon sends the new 407 (ERR_TOOMANYTARGETS_MSG) numeric, containing
+    the first target that hasn't been handled any more. Closes #187.
+  - Test suite: Add new test for server-server logins.
+  - contrib/ngindent: Fix shebang line.
+  - Make contrib/platformtest.sh script more portable, and only show
+    "runs=Y" when the test suite really has been passed successfully.
+  - Code cleanup in the NJON handler and the function killing clients as
+    well as the function sending messages to a "mask" (cleaner code, more
+    fault tolerant, better code comments).
+  - Update and enhance documentation: README file, doc/Platforms.txt,
+    doc/Modes.txt, doc/Commands.txt, doc/PAM.txt.
+  - Fix NJOIN not propagating "half ops" status: ngIRCd tested for the wrong
+    prefix of "half ops" when processing NJOIN commands and therefore never
+    classified a remote user as "half op".
+    Thanks to wowaname for pointing this out on #ngircd!
