    to detect everything and therefore even kill legit clients


-- Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.1 (2016-01-03)
o) Added 'command_queue_size', 'command_interval', and 'command_timeout',
    configuration directives to the options {} block. See doc/reference.conf
    for more information.
o) Various updates to the reference.conf; added updated 'connregex' 
directives
    for ircd-hybrid in conjunction with user mode +F (far connect

-- Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.0 (2015-08-07)

    compiler warnings if supported by the compiler


-- Noteworthy changes in version 1.0.7 (2015-06-06)
