    ✂ Removed

    • ✂ Removed gitconfig configuration format [replaced with YAML].
    • ✂ Removed sqlite database [replaced with buntdb key-value store].
    • ✂ Removed THEATER command (it broke and I'm not that interested in putting the work in to get it working again with the aim of this project. PRs accepted).

    🛠 Fixed

    • 🛠 Fixed clients no longer being able to send commands after a single command errored out.
    • CAP: Registration is now properly suspended during CAP negotiation.
    • 🚚 CAP: Remove CAP CLEAR (recommended in IRCv3 3.2), and allow capability negotiation after registration.
    • 📜 MODE: Fixed <modestring> evaluation (we were parsing all ungrabbed parameters as a modestring, when it is actually only the first param).
    • 💅 MODE: New-style mode change syntax (with both adding and removing modes in a single MODE command) is now parsed properly.
    • MOTD: Now store MOTD in-memory rather than on-disk, and don't limit it to 80 characters per line (not required with today's servers or clients).
    • NICK: Restrict nicknames that break the protocol.
    • 👉 USER: Restrict usernames that break the protocol.
    • PROXY: Restrict to specified hostnames only.
    • WHOIS: Include the required <nick> param on RPL_ENDOFWHOIS.
    • WHOIS: Hide hidden channels in WHOIS responses.
