     This release is primarily to correct an incompatibility with the
FreeBSD operating system in versions 5.0.3 and 5.0.4.  It also includes a
user suggestion to report warnings if a mask containing "!" is used with
the NickServ ACCESS command.  (The mask is still added, but the user is
reminded to check whether it is correct.)
