Changelog

support for HTTP-header "X-Forwarded-For" in IP-logging (#331);
fixed "undefined" in reorder extension scripts (#338);
fixed compile error under gcc 4.8.

TLS certificate verification (#339):

when connecting to a news server (for downloading) or a web server (for fetching of rss feeds and nzb-files) the authenticity of the server is validated using server security certificate. If the check fails that means the connection cannot be trusted and must be closed with an error message explaining the security issue;
new options CertCheck and CertStore;
official NZBGet packages come with activated certificate check;
when updating from an older NZBGet version the option CertCheck will be automatically activated when the settings is saved (switch to Settings page in web-interface and click "Save all changed");

authentication via form in web-interface as alternative to HTTP authentication (#330):

that must help with password tools having issues with HTTP authentication dialog;
new option FormAuth;

Awasu is a RSS client that lets you monitor news from thousands of web sites and blogs around the world. Unlike other RSS clients, it has a powerful plugin architecture that allows you to monitor absolutely anything at all, even if it doesn't provide an RSS feed. For example, samples are provided that let you monitor a database, notifying when changes are made.
