The XeroMem IRC Network Routing Team has performed major software updates on the network.  Here’s a quick update:

• UnrealIRCd v5.0.9 upgraded to UnrealIRCd v6.0.4
• Anope v2.0.9 upgraded to Anope v2.0.11

UnrealIRCd 6

The UnrealIRCd Team announced and made UnrealIRCd 5 an old-stable release,  In doing so, they also announced the upcoming End of Life for UnrealIRCd 5 as July 2023.  In an effort to stay current, we’ve updated to the more-recently released UnrealIRCd 6.  Changes included a complete overhaul of the logging and snomask features, improved support for IRCv3, GeoIP database management, improved cloaking modules, updated configuration file design, and improved overall stability.
