+
+---------------------------------
+0.5.2 (???) "orthogonal interior"
+---------------------------------
+
+ - Minor fixes to avoid clang warnings.
+
+------------------------------------------
+0.5.1 (2013-12-20) "temporary implication"
+------------------------------------------
+
+Lots of fixes and improvements all over the place, and a major overhaul
+of the build system.
+
+ - Audiod improvements and fixes.
+ - Buffer tree robustness improvements.
+ - Cleanup of the mood subsystem.
+ - Fixes and cleanups for the flac decoder.
+ - Latency improvements for the ogg/opus decoder.
+ - Crypto support is now optional. On systems without
+ openssl/gcrypt, the build succeeds but para_server,
+ para_audiod, para_client won't be built.
+ - The build system now works for cross-compile setups.
+ - The dependency tree has been flattened, which speeds up
+ builds and avoids to recreate the man pages on every change.
+ - The error code helper has been rewritten from perl to C,
+ which further improves build time.
+ - Many small bugs in the build system have been identified
+ and fixed.

+0.5.0 (2013-08-23) "invertible validity"
+----------------------------------------
+
+Some API-breaking changes, one serious bug fix, and a lot of bike-shedding.
+
+ - The sideband compatibility code has been removed, hence
+ sideband connections (introduced in 0.4.11) are now mandatory.
+ - Addblob commands can produce output.
+ - The stat command no longer sends garbage when para_server was
+ compiled against libgcrypt.
+ - Dependencies for gengetopt files are computed automatically.
+ This eliminates a constant source of build bugs.
+ - The setatt command now accepts file name patterns rather than only
+ path names.
+ - overview.pdf is now based on dia, a simple diagram creation program.
+ The new version is much more detailed and contains descriptions of
+ the various programs of the paraslash package.
+ - The separator of all multi-word options has been changed from
+ underscore to dash. For example --log_color becomes --log-color.
+ - Overhauled web pages and the new logo.

+0.4.13 (2013-07-29) "spectral gravity"
+--------------------------------------
+
+One more 0.4.x release before the API-breaking changes for 0.5.0 go
+in. The main features of this release are the ogg/opus audio format,
+and UTF-8 support, but it includes also tons of other improvements
+and fixes all over the place.
+
+ - New audio format: ogg/opus.
+ - UTF8 support for para_gui and the mp3 audio format handler.
+ - Scheduler improvements and fixes.
+ - The obsolete gettimeofday() function has been replaced
+ by clock_gettime() on systems which support it.
+ - Speed and usability improvements for para_gui.
+ - para_client now restores the fd flags of stdin and stdout
+ on shutdown.
+ - Improved manual pages.
+ - Consistent version strings for all executables.
+ - Reduced dependencies on generated files result in fewer
+ recompilations on changes.
+ - Performance improvements for the compress filter.
+ - Improved downloads web page.
+
+-----------------------------------------
+0.4.12 (2012-12-20) "volatile relativity"
+-----------------------------------------
+The new command line player, the resample filter, ALSA support for
+para_fade, and the improved build system are the highlights of this
+release which probably marks the end of the 0.4.x series.
+ - The afh receiver and the para_play executable.
+ - The resample filter: A sample rate converter based on
+ libsamplerate.
- The "versions" directory has been removed from the master
branch. The tarballs of the old releases are now available
in the new "releases" branch.
- Overhaul of the build system: All generated files are now
written to the "build" directory.
+ - The modular mixer API and the alsa mixer.
+ - Minor fixes for the osx writer.
