  85
  86 Contributions for the 2.8 release from the following people:
  87 Matthew Green <phone@coombs.anu.edu.au>
  88 Chuck Kane <ckane@ece.uiuc.edu>
  89 Matt Lyle <matt@oc.com>
  90 Vesa Ruokonen <ruokonen@lut.fi>
  91
  92 Markku Savela <Markku.Savela@vtt.fi> / April 1990
  93 Fixed various bugs in 2.2PL1 release server (2.2msa.4) and changed
  94 sockets to use non-blocking mode (2.2msa.9). [I have absolutely
  95 nothing to do with clients :-]
  96
  97 Chelsea Ashley Dyerman <chelsea@earth.cchem.berkeley.edu> / April 1990
  98 Rewrote the Makefiles, restructuring of source tree. Added libIrcd.a to
  99 the Makefile macros, numerous reformatting of server text messages, and
 100 added mkversion.sh to keep track of compilation statistics. Numerous
 101 bug fixes and enhancements, and co-coordinator of the 2.4 release.
 102
 103 jarlek@ifi.uio.no added mail functions to irc.
 104
 105 Armin Gruner <gruner@informatik.tu-muenchen.de> / May, June 1990:
 106 * Patched KILL-line feature for ircd.conf, works now.
 107   Enhancement:  Time intervals can be specified in passwd-field.
 108   Result: KILL-Line is only active during these intervals
 109 * Patched PRIVMSG handling, now OPER can specify masks for sending
 110   private messages, advantage: msg to all at a specified server or host.
 111 * Little tests on irc 2.5 alpha, fixed some little typos in client code.
 112   Change: common/debug.c has been moved to ircd/s_debug.c, and a
 113   irc/c_debug.c has been created, for the benefit that wrong server msg
 114   are displayed if client does not recognize them. (strange, if a server
 115   sends an 'unknown command', isn't it?)
 116
 117 Tom Hopkins <hoppie@buengf.bu.edu> / September, October 1990:
 118 * Patched msa's K lines for servers (Q lines).
 119 * Consolidated several patches, including Stealth's logging patch.
 120 * Fixed several minor bugs.
 121 * Has done lots of other stuff that I can't seem to remember, but he
 122   always works on code, so he has to have done alot more than three
 123   lines worth. :)

 151 of people, all of us.
