 0.5.2 (to be announced) "orthogonal interior"
 ---------------------------------------------
 
-	- The new sync synchronizes playback between multiple clients.
+The new sync filter, the AES_CTR128 stream cipher and the overhauled
+network code are the highlights of this release.
+
+	- The new sync filter synchronizes playback between multiple
+	  clients.
+	- Connections between para_server and para_client are now
+	  encrypted by means of AES rather than RC4 if both sides
+	  support it. RC4 is still available as a fallback. This
+	  feature is fully transparent, i.e. no command line options
+	  are necessary, and a client linked against openssl can
+	  speak with a server linked against libgcrypt and vice versa.
 	- Major cleanup of the networking subsystem.
+	- Improved user manual.
 	- Minor fixes to avoid clang warnings.
