34 <PRE>No one is forcing you to upgrade. The coders can only go so far to test the
35 changes. The only real way to testing to find bugs is to release a version
36 of the program and then wait for feedback. If you want to live on the
37 bleeding edge, you have to expect to get cut or to atleast patch up often.
38 IRC Services version 4.5, if you take a quick glance at the Changes file,
39 was quite a major release. One just needs to wait for this to become a
40 stable release. The only way it's going to get there is with testing and
41 with patches.

52 &gt;<i> If this were, say, xmms or licq, I would have less problems updating it
53 </I>&gt;<i> weekly. I would prefer the bugs to be worked out. But until they are
54 </I>worked
55 &gt;<i> out, I don't plan on updating services. It would be too much of a hassle
56 </I>on
57 &gt;<i> me, the other opers, and the users on the server.

71 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; Services 4.5.11 has been released, and can be downloaded from:
72 </I>&gt;<i> &gt;

75 </I>&gt;<i> &gt;
76 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; This release (hopefully) fixes the bug many people have reported
77 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; with Services not allowing chanops on remote servers to register
78 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; channels when using Unreal; I'm sorry it took this long to get it out,
79 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; but my job is keeping me busy of late, and of course the job takes
80 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; precedence over Services. Please report any problems, as I haven't
81 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; had time to test the change sufficiently. Note that this change does
82 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; not affect any servers other than Unreal.
83 </I>&gt;<i> &gt;
84 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; To the person who commented on the frequency of Services
85 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; releases: Would you rather I leave the bugs as is? (By the way, the
86 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; bugs being fixed are almost all bugs that were present in 4.4.8 as
87 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; well, so you're better off with the latest 4.5.x in any case.) I do
88 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; try to make a note, as above, when any &quot;official&quot; release may have
89 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; instabilities.
90 </I>&gt;<i> &gt;
91 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; The Changes file for 4.5.11 is as follows:
92 </I>&gt;<i> &gt;
93 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; 2001/04/09 .11 Eliminated bogus srealloc() warnings. Reported by Yusuf
94 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; Iskenderoglu &lt;<A HREF="http://www.ircservices.za.net/mailman/listinfo/ircservices">uhc0 at rz.uni-karlsruhe.de</A>&gt;
95 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; 2001/04/09 Added SJ3 support for Unreal to fix problems reported with
96 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; registering channels on remote servers.
97 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; 2001/04/08 Fixed NickServ LINK help message to remove incorrect
98 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; comment about linking nicks. Reported by Andrew Vestal
99 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; &lt;<A HREF="http://www.ircservices.za.net/mailman/listinfo/ircservices">andrewv at stanford.edu</A>&gt;
