patch #7813

[mldonkey.git] / distrib / ChangeLog

The release mechanism was changed in a way that minor updates
will not get a release tag in CVS, also the version number reported
by MLDonkey will stay the same.

Patches done after the last release are experimental,
please test carefully and report your results.

All numbers mentioned here can be found as patches on
http://savannah.nongnu.org/patch/?group=mldonkey

To compile MLDonkey on MinGW follow this guide:

- still use 0 to disable
- hard-coded global minimum of 5 minutes, this updates old default 1 to 5
- automated options update, if update is needed (options_version <= 19) and
  share_scan_interval = 5 (because of new hard-coded minimum, which is
  processed earlier) its changed to new default of 30
6145: EDK: Update options description of max_connected_servers (Schlumpf)
6172: EDK: properly advertise and honour noviewshared tag (TripleM)

2007/08/23
6160: BT: Another fix for share_scan_interval
- Old hard-coded default was 300s, now with share_scan_interval its
  possible to use a minimum of 60s which produces high CPU load.
  This patch implements a minimum of 300s for the BT share_files timer.

2007/08/04
6128: New default for option messages_filter (unease)
6132: HTML: Fix group display in vd <num> for admin users

      due to buggy patch #6049 (thx to darkman)

6048: Make Ocaml 3.10.0 the default compiler
- MLDonkey can still be compiled with Ocaml 3.08.3/4 & 3.09.*

2007/06/24

6043: Discover WAN IP
- new command "discover_ip" to force discovery

- this patch is important for BT-only usage, without this patch the
  WAN IP was discovered only by using EDK server replies

- this fixes a security hole when networks started connecting
  before IP blocklist was loaded
