10BEGIN SUMMARY
11** Update **
12
13We have re-released .23 with a revision 'b' as an oversight was made on loading encrypted databases which has now been resolved.
14
15If you previously updated to .23 you needn't update again unless you have problems.
16
17****
18
19Since releasing 1.7.22 just over 2 weeks ago, we've continued to polish the 1.7 branch for the eventual release of 1.8.
20
21We've fixed various issues some shown below:
22
23Buffer overflows with both ChanServ and NickServ (Win32 Crashbug in 1.7.22)
24
25FreeBSD 7 dns_nss.so.1 issue.
26<br/>
27Expanded behaviour of OperServ Ignore & introduced modular database back end meaning Ignores are saved even after a services restart.
28<br/>
29Various typographic errors are fixed in help/lang files.
30<br/>
31Expanded behaviour of OperServ Modlist
32<br/>
33Enabled UMODE functionality for InspIRCd 1.1
34
35USERS SHOULD BE AWARE OF BROKEN BACKWARDS DATABASE COMPATIBILITY. TAKE A GOOD BACK UP BEFORE UPGRADING!

63Unfortunately, we encountered some problems with the way in which Chanserv & Nickserv are storing passwords which has led us to make a sad but needed decision to break the long time standing backwards database compatibility with versions prior to this one. - This means that once you have upgraded to 1.7.23 (or any SVN build after revision 1462) you will be unable to go back.
64
65Please make sure you take a back up prior to upgrading just in case you do need to revert!
66
67We cannot stress the importance of this advice, and assure you it was with a heavy heart we broke the compatibility and not a decision we took lightly.
