+Version 2.2.3 (2008-11-12):
hunk ./NEWS 28
+- Building without Guile now works again
+- Building with GCC 4.x now works
+  + GCC prior to 4.x's libc headers exported the libc symbols from
+    both :: and std:: leading to a few unqualified libc calls sneaking
+    into Bobot++'s source
+- All uses of the long deprecated GH API have been removed
+  + Building against libguile 1.8 built with --disable-deprecated now
+    works
+  + Building against Guile 1.6 likely no longer works
+  + However, building against guile-vm libguile does work and Bobot++
+    is the first application built this way
+- This will be the last of the 2.2.x series; a 2.3.x series /might/ be
+  started to enhance the scripting interface and finish the manual

-Guile Scheme (http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/) Version 1.6 is used

-2.2.1:
-* Finish Texinfo manual
-* Implement ctcp-dequote
-* Finish adding commands to Scheme for sending messages
-* Finish adding hooks/send hooks
+Solved By  Inactivity:
+* Remove gh_* when Guile 1.8 is released
+  Guile 1.8 was released ages ago; no need to put this off to 3.0
+* Add a networked interface to guile repl
+  Guile Debugging Server (GDS) does a fine job of this albeit only
+  intentionally on the localhost. The bot is not particularly
+  threadsafe and so the usefulness of GDS is limited...
hunk ./TODO 24
-* Use configuration database class
+* Finish converting UserCommands to use Commands
+* Eliminate String class
+* Make internals threadsafe
+  - Need to lock *List, Hooks, and ServerQueue it seems
+* Convert Hooks and ServerQueue to internally use a std::priority_queue<>
hunk ./TODO 33
+  - Generate help dynamically rather than using a static file
+  - Commands register help entries
hunk ./TODO 36
+ - Implement ctcp-dequote
+ - Finish adding commands to Scheme for sending messages
+ - Finish adding hooks/send hooks
+ - Add commands to delete a hook
+ - Saner module loading
+ - Higher level interface (e.g. define-command NAME (ARGS) vs define +
+   bot:addcommand)
+ - New API in module (bobot++ FOO) instead of (bobotpp ...) to allow
+   old script to continue working with the old interface
+* DCC FILE support (sending and recieving)
+* Finish configuration database class
+* Finish Texinfo manual
hunk ./TODO 51
-* Eliminate String class
-* Finish converting UserCommands to use Commands
hunk ./TODO 54
-* DCC FILE support (sending and recieving)
hunk ./TODO 60
-Scripting:
-* Add commands to delete a hook
-   - return an iterator to the Hook
-   - this would require a new SMOB to be created
-   - Scheme could pass Hook objects around and do nifty things
-   - At least allow all hooks of a type with the same name field to be
-     deleted at once (also all hooks with the same name). Also allow
-     deleting based on the regexp
-
-Networking:
-* Add a networked interface to guile repl
-   - This can (should) be done as a script, but requires non-coop threads
-     support to be done easily (and thus requires Guile 1.8)
-   - Admins only
-   - Telnet
-   - Store authorized users and passwords in bot.telnet file
-   - Bot master can add new telnet users
-   - MUST HAVE PASSWORD
-* See if Socket::readLine could be sped up (profile it first to see if
-   it even matters)
-
hunk ./TODO 61
-* Remove gh_* when Guile 1.8 is released
