- 2008-06-19  Rotating server certificates
- ----------------------------------------
- We are slowly rotating our servers' SSL certificates.  The new
- certs are signed, indirectly, by SPI's certification authority
- and no longer by cacert's.
- 
- If you use SSL to connect to our network (ports 6697 and 9999)
- and you verify the certs you need to get SPI's root cert from
- <URL:http://www.spi-inc.org/secretary/spi-cacert.crt/view>.

- 2007-11-23  Enabling ssl client certificates
- --------------------------------------------
- NickServ now supports auto-identification using SSL connections
- and client certificates.
-
