+
+A mix of cleanups, bug fixes, improvements, and some new features. No
+significant changes to the new database (osl) code, which is generally
+a good sign.
+
+       - Share some similar/duplicate code between the http and the
+         dccp sender.
+       - Generic access control lists for paraslash senders.
+       - dccp sender: Access control lists, connection limiting and support
+         for the allow,deny,on,off,help sender commands.
+       - The default dccp port changed from 5001 to 8000 (suggested by
+         Gerrit Renker).
+       - para_server starts even if not all public keys could be loaded.
+       - Audiod performance improvements.
+       - fix a bug in the "off" command of the http sender.
+       - fix some fd and memory leaks.
