-0.4.6 (to be announced) "deterministic entropy"
------------------------------------------------
+------------------------------------------
+0.4.9 (to be announced) "hybrid causality"
+------------------------------------------
+
+ - Fix for an endless loop in the mp3 decoder for certain
+ (corrupt) mp3 files.
+ - autogen.sh now detects a distcc setup and adjusts the
+ parameter for the -j option of make accordingly.
+ - Shared memory areas are no longer restricted to 64K. We now
+ detect the maximal size of a shared memory area at runtime.
+ - cleanup of the internal uptime API.
+ - para_server prefaults the mmapped audio file to avoid
+ delays on slow media.
+ - A new test for the test-suite that exercises the
+ communication between para_server and para_audiod.
+ - The alsa writer eats up less CPU cycles when configured to
+ use the DMIX plugin.
+ - Simplified and unified receiver code.
+ - Makefile cleanups.
+ - Commands which print a list of matching audio files now
+ emit a meaningful error message if no audio file matched the
+ given pattern(s).

+--------------------------------------
+0.4.8 (2011-08-19) "nested assignment"
+--------------------------------------
+
+Gcrypt support, the overhauled osx writer and regex format specifiers
+are the highlights of this release.
+
+ - support for libgcrypt as a drop-in replacement for openssl.
+ Run configure --enable-cryptolib=gcrypt to link against
+ libgcrypt. The two crypto implementations are compatible to
+ each other, i.e. a para_client executable linked against
+ gcrypt can connect to para_server linked against libssl
+ and vice versa.
+ - Rewrite of the osx writer (output plugin for Mac OS).
+ - audiod: The format specifier for receivers, filters and
+ writers is now treated as a regular expression. This allows
+ to replace 5 lines in the config file (one for each audio
+ format) by one single line. See the manual for details.
+ - The *.cmdline.[ch] files are no longer contained in the released
+ tarballs. This reduces the size of the tarballs but requires
+ gengetopt to build the tarball.
+ - Compiles cleanly also with llvm/clang.
+ - Corrupt mp3 files are handled more gracefully.
+ - The alsa writer uses poll fds instead of computing timeouts.
+ - Cleanup of the generic writer API.
+ - sched: Optimized zero timeouts.
+ - vss timeout cleanups.
+ - oggdec fixes and improvements.
+
+--------------------------------------
+0.4.7 (2011-06-01) "infinite rollback"
+--------------------------------------
+
+The new ao writer, support for ssh RSA keys and a couple of other
+enhancements.
+
+ - Support for ESD, Pulseaudio, AIX, Solaris, IRIX and other
+ platforms through the libao audio library.
+ - Support for RSA keys generated with ssh-keygen.
+ - configure: improved options for ogg/vorbis/speex.
+ - The git version reported by --version always matches HEAD.
+ - The autogen script detects the number of processors and
+ runs a parallel make if possible.
+ - Major cleanup of the crypto API.
+ - Documentation updates.

+0.4.6 (2011-03-31) "deterministic entropy"
+------------------------------------------
Lots of ogg/vorbis improvements, the new test suite, enhancements
for para_gui and a fair amount of other bug fixes.
