The mirrors should have it shortly.

     This release is to implement the change suggested a little while ago
regarding channel expiration; channels will no longer expire if at least
one auto-op user is in the channel (and identified so that they have
auto-op privileges).  As a side effect, ChanServ INFO will now display the
current time in the "last used" field if an auto-op user is in the channel.
I have also added a new section to the documentation (section 3-2-3)
detailing the rules for channel expiration, to hopefully avoid future
confusion and/or spark debate on better ways to handle expiration.

Changes in version 5.0.47
-------------------------
2005/02/23	Channels no longer expire while an auto-op user is in the
		    channel; expiration is delayed until the time specified
		    by CSExpire after the last such user leaves the channel.
		    Reported by Anton Wolkov <phan70m at gmail.com>
2005/02/23	Added user IP addresses to the OperServ LISTUSER debug
		    command as well.
