-0.3.4 (to be announced) "elliptic inheritance"
-----------------------------------------------
-
-The new udp sender, colored logs and various other improvements.
-
-       - The udp sender replaces the ortp sender. The new code is
-         both smaller and cleaner than the old ortp sender/receiver
-         code. As the udp sender does not depend on any special
-         libraries, it is built unconditionally. The default port
-         for udp streaming now defaults to 8000, like for the http
-         and the dccp senders/receivers.
+---------------------------------------------------
+0.4.0 (to be announced) "simultaneous independence"
+---------------------------------------------------
+
+Two significant changes which require the new version number: The
+improved authentication dialog and the fact that the database code
+has been moved to a library, libosl. To use the new version, you have
+to generate new RSA keys, see INSTALL for details. A shell script is
+provided for conversion of the 0.3 database to the new 0.4 format.
+
+       - stronger crypto for client authentication
+       - the database code has been moved to a library
+       - improved status item handling
+       - the new parser-friendly listing mode for the ls and stat commands
+       - mandatory rc4 encryption
+       - major audio format handler cleanups
+       - improved tag handling
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+0.3.5 (to be announced) "symplectic separability"
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+       - the new oss writer (supported on *BSD and Linux)
+       - support for netmask subsets (Gerrit Renker)
+       - the new prebuffer filter
+       - improved signal handling
+       - variable fec output buffer size
+       - --log_color actually works
+       - new ls option: -d (print dates as seconds after the epoch)
+       - update to gengetopt 2.22.2
+
+-----------------------------------------
+0.3.4 (2009-05-07) "elliptic inheritance"
+-----------------------------------------
+
+The new udp sender, forward error correction, colored logs and various
+other improvements. As the udp sender does not depend on any special
+libraries, it is built unconditionally.
+
+       - The udp sender replaces the ortp sender. The new code uses forward
+         error correction to protect against packet losses. Many thanks to
+         Gerrit Renker for providing ipv6 support.
+       - The default port for udp streaming now defaults to 8000, like
+         for the http and the dccp senders/receivers.
        - Loglevels are now specified as symbolic names, e.g.
          "--loglevel info".
+       - improved ipv4 and ipv6 URI parser (Gerrit Renker).
        - para_server/para_audiod: Color support for log messages.
        - new options for mp3dec: --ignore-crc, --bufsize
        - new audiod option: --config-file.
