The main change is doing IPv6.
Version 2.00 can be installed over previous versions, as database format didn't change. DB files for IPv6 are created anew, using the names of IPv4 files and adding "6" to the base name.

Maintenance release enabling BDB version 5.*, and minor changes including:
- Man pages for ibd-del, ibd-ban, and ibd-white. More man pages will be added soon.
- Allow multiple addresses to be passed in a single ibd-ban command.
- Accept IPv4 mapped IPv6 addresses. (These tools will only store IPv4 addresses until I get a real IPv6 host address to experiment with.)
- Decay treatment tweaks: Default value changed from 2 mins to 6 hours, and decay doubled on passing the threshold.

After some months, it seems linking with the newer version of libnetfilter_queue fixes the behavior when a queue error is experienced. Ipqbdb v1.02 logs such error and continues to run smoothly.

In the new version I've renamed the ipqbdbd daemon to ibd-judge, as it emits verdicts. That way it's easier to grep logs or processes. New features are
- terminate established connections by letting iptables send tcp-reset to the local server for packets marked guilty,
- specify the target database size when deleting old records, and
- collect statistics.

The 0.1 release has been running smoothly on a 64bit Intel debian system since December 16, 2008. It has a unique queue. Parsing consumes much more than actual filtering.
It did catch the lame dictionary attack that it has been designed to block!
