+       - 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.
