One and a half years in the making, countless of hours of coding, testing and hair loss by several coders. BeBot 0.4 is finally here.
Technically it's a 1.0 release, but in the true spirit of open source... this is the way it should be :)
Without further to do, i hope you all enjoy.

Changelog: (Changes since 0.3.5)
- Numerous internal optimizations.
- Added option for disabling error on bad input for is command. Turning this setting to off is reccomended when you are not using a command prefix.
- Using call-by-reference instead of call-by-value in tablename callback, this way updates in get_tablename() are remembered.
- Showing last seen information in members list.
- Hopefully fix the issue with multiple logon notifications seemingly occuring due to threading issues.
- Caching a number of whois queries to reduce number of SQL queries. The number of queries cached and the time before a query in this cache is considered outdated are defined by settings.
- Informing new users if they are on autoinvite and how to disable this in the "you got added" notification.
- Caching last_seen.
- Moved notify check into it's own core module, and caching notify list. Adapted all modules checking and modifying notifylist. Notify status can be checked by calling $this -> bot -> notify -> check($name) now.
- Moved adding and removing characters to notify list into core module. $this -> bot -> notify -> add($source, $name) and $this -> bot -> notify -> del($name) are the relevant function.
- Removed unneccessary checks for output of the bot in modules, it gets filtered earlier already.
- Incoming relayed chat from other bots is being send to IRC again if IRC is enabled.
- Optional notification of pgroup joins and leaves to IRC.
- Updated Example module
- Escaping organisation names in Tower module now.
- Checked core modules and related interfaces for correctly escaped input to SQL.
- Checked all modules for correctly escaped input to SQL.
- Added security option to count everyone in the chat channel of the bot as GUEST for security reasons. Default is enabled.
- Renamed irc->send_over_irc() function to ird->send_irc() to keep in pattern set by other send_* functions.
- Caching general help pages (the ones called on "!help") to speed up displaying of them.

Finally!
Now I can go and break the SVN again! :P
