Removing Support for Pre-ADC 1.0 Clients in DSHub

[Toast]

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/dshub/ ... -0-clients

Here is my spec awaiting approval from Pietry

but in the meantime lets discuss it and have a poll on it here

[en_dator]

which clients are these pre-ADC 1.0 that you speak of?

[Toast]

DC++ 0.68 - 0.69* and any mods there of

in anycase i don't see why one should keep old shit in hubs i personally don't want old clients thats outdated supported

[adrian_007]

yeah remove it, btw wondering who's using old client on new protocol...

[Spookie]

Remove them

[Delion]

Remove it

[Pietry]

You mean just disconnect all client that don't advertise BASE but a revision of them like older clients ( BAS0) ?
Anyway DSHub is just letting them in, support for their functions was gone ever since DSHub moved to ADC 1.0.
And adch++ still supports this older clients...

nope check DCDev the developers made a fix last week so all pre adc 1.0 clients cant get in

Updated the blueprint

a bit of conversation from DSDev that relates to the topic

[08-09-08][20:23:13] <Toast> i would like an option
[08-09-08][20:23:32] <Toast> or an complete removal of prebase clients
[08-09-08][20:23:47] <Toast> since i dont see the point of supporting old shit
[08-09-08][20:24:02] <Pietry> but i want a way to make the old users upgrade
[08-09-08][20:24:07] <Pietry> not just discard them
[08-09-08][20:24:25] <Toast> then start making a spec with me
[08-09-08][20:24:39] <Pietry> perhaps remove old base support but show a message like please upgrade bla bla
[08-09-08][20:24:43] <Toast> they could get an upgrade msg
[08-09-08][20:24:54] <Toast> then disconnect
[08-09-08][20:25:09] <Pietry> yeah something like that can be done... looks more friendly anyway

[adrian_007]

check adch++ and you'll see there is no fix yet
