+ * Added away state and tls usage to the anope.user RPC event.
+ * Added support for looking up accounts by identifier in the anope.account RPC event.
+ * Added support for storing the setter and set time and setter of list modes and restoring them on InspIRCd and Solanum.
+ * Added support for token authentication to the RPC modules.
+ * Added the anope.checkCredentials, anope.identify, anope.listCommands, and anope.command RPC events to the new rpc_user module.
+ * Added the ns_email module.
+ * Added the rpc_user module.

+ * Deprecated irc2sql in favour of rpc_data.
+ * Dropped support for Bahamut as it has no known users.
+ * Fixed creating duplicate Stats rows on some servers.
+ * Fixed loading databases in db_json.
+ * Fixed restoring cloaked hosts on InspIRCd when the cloak module is not loaded.
+ * Fixed some variable shadowing that potentially caused issues with the SQL database backends.
+ * Fixed sometimes writing accounts to the database without a unique identifier.
+ * Fixed various documentation issues with the example JavaScript JSON-RPC client.
+ * Improved CTCP handling and added support for more CTCP types.
+ * Moved nickserv/set/email and nickserv/saset/email to the ns_email module.
+ * Removed the bahamut module.
+ * Removed the ns_getemail module (load ns_email instead).

+ * Removed the rpc_main module (migrate to the other RPC modules).
+ * Removed {chanstats}:cs_def_chanstats (add CS_STATS to {chanserv}:defaults instead).
