The mirrors should have it shortly.

     This release takes care of a number of comparatively minor issues I
had encountered and noted while writing the Services technical manual.
This covers the last of my currently planned changes for 5.1; if nothing
comes up, I'll probably release a beta version before too long.  (This of
course assumes that I can find the time to do so.  There's a reason all
those change log entries are clustered in a single day--I didn't dare waste
my rare moments of freedom!)

Changes in version 5.1a12

2007/02/16	Removed all support for "modeless" channels (+name).
2007/02/16	Fixed httpd/redirect handling of nicknames and channel

		    the top page, rather than for any URL.

		    HTTP request lines rather than silently splitting them.
2007/02/16	Added password obscurity check to ChanServ REGISTER and SET
		    PASSWORD.  Suggested by Dionisios K. <vonitsa_net at yahoo.gr>
2007/02/16	Changed NSRejectEmail configuration directive to RejectEmail,
		    and added rejection checks to NickServ/ChanServ SET EMAIL.
2007/02/16	Changed MD_EXCLUSION constant name to MD_EXCLUDE to match
		    the OperServ command name.
2007/02/16	Add get/put-field wrapper routines to database code to
		    remove unnecessary complexity from database modules.
2007/02/16	Fixed bug causing PID file to not be removed on exit.
2007/01/14	Fixed bug in configure type definitions.  Reported by
