+
+The highlight of this release is the new "ls --admissible=m/foo"
+feature described below. Other user-visible changes include minor
+additions to the "ls" and "select" server commands. The release also
+includes a fair number of cleanups for the crypto code and the file
+descriptor utilities, both without visible effects. Old ssh keys
+and outdated openssl library versions are now deprecated and cause
+warnings.
+
+- Old style PEM keys are now deprecated. They still work but their
+ use results in a run-time warning. The removal of PEM key support is
+ scheduled for paraslash-0.8.0.
+- Version 1.0 of the openssl library has been deprecated. A warning
+ is printed at compile-time on systems which have this outdated version
+ because it will no longer be supported once paraslash-0.8.0 comes out.
+- A spring cleanup for the senescent code in fd.c.
+- The --admissible option of the ls command now takes an optional
+ argument. When invoked like --admissible=m/foo, only files which are
+ admissible with respect to mood foo are listed.
+- The select server command is now quiet by default, The new --verbose
+ option can be used to show information about the newly loaded mood
+ or playlist.
+- The ls server command gained the --limit option to force a limit
+ on the number of files listed.
+- Cleanup of the openssl-specific code.

+0.7.2 (2023-03-08) "optical friction"
+-------------------------------------
+
+The improved error reporting of afs commands and the two new options
+for the sleep subcommand of para_mixer are the most prominent features
+of this minor release. The bulk of the changes are cleanups of the
+afs and net subsystems, which should both have no user-visible impact.
- A major cleanup of the audio file selector.
- The client no longer prints error messages from afs commands to
the startup mood and the time period before fade-out starts. A bunch
of further improvements for this subcommand went in as well.
- Minor cleanup of the net subsystem.
+- The openssl specific code now employs the EVP API to compute hashes.
+ It should compile without warnings against openssl-3.
+- The deprecated syntax for specifying negative offsets in the argument
+ to the "ff" server command has been removed.
