33<PRE>Firstly, congratulations to Andy for getting the first version of 5.1
34released. Sorry to hear that you're quitting Services development
35though.
36
37There are a few issues with 5.1 that I'd like to mention:
38
39- I enabled encryption for the first time when using 5.1, and dumped
40the XML output to file immediately afterwards to see the results
41(after saving the databases, obviously). I noticed that all the
42channel founder passwords had &quot;cipher=md5&quot; included in the XML tag,
43even when the passwords were still unencrypted. (The nickname
44passwords appear to be fine though.) If you want me to, I can
45privately send you the XML file so you can see what I'm talking about
46- it's not very big (only 3 nicks and 10 channels).
47
48- Is there any way that news items can be included in the XML dump? I
49don't know about the rest of the users out there, but I personally
50find it very annoying having to manually re-enter them after restoring
51corrupt databases, transferring my data between versions 5.0 and 5.1,
52etc.
53
54- I can understand your reasons for removing support for the channel
55owner mode, but I think that there might be some controversy over this
56one. Would it be possible for third party module coders to add support
57for this mode? (For the record, the aforementioned module coder won't
58be me; I don't know any C :P)
59
60Once again, thanks for the release.
