The new version of the SILC Client is now available!  The source package
of the software is available from the following sources:

         http://silcnet.org/
         ftp://ftp.silcnet.org/

Due to the new SILC Server release with support to the UTF-8 nicknames and 
channel names I release new version of the SILC Client as it seems to not 
to function very well with the new server.  This version includes support 
to the UTF-8 encoded nicknames and channel names, however, certain 
problems may still exists, as this is a slight premature release.  Enjoy.


Summary of Changes
------------------

o Added support for UTF-8 encoded nicknames and channel names.

o Command queue implemented for better UTF-8 support.

o --with-silc-includes and --with-silc-libs added gto configure to use
   pre-installed SILC Toolkit.

The full list of changes is available on the website and in CHANGES file
in the source package.


Installation
------------

The source package is compiled and installed as instructed in the INSTALL
file found from the package.  Quick installation:

   ./configure
   make
   make install


Known Issues
------------

- Known Issues in SILC Client

   - It is possible that some times the user list is not printed or is
     printed as incomplete when joining to a channel.  This is due to a
     failure in the user resolvings and can happen for example when some
     user quits the network at the same time you join the channel.  In
     this case the failure of the resolving may leave the user list
     printing incomplete.

   - It is possible that some notifications, such as channel join,
     are not delivered to user interface due to same resolving reason as
     described above.
