+The major feature in this release is the new sideband API for
+client-server communication. This API will be used exclusively starting
+with 0.5.0, which breaks backward compatibility but allows to get rid
+of quite some compatibility code. Other noteworthy changes include
+decoder latency improvements and a long-standing bug fix for the
+ALSA writer.
+
+ - Sideband connections: If both para_server and para_client
+ support this feature, data is sent as a multiplexed stream.
+ - The --no_default_filters option of para_filter has been
+ removed.
+ - Several fixes and latency improvements to various decoders.
+ - The ALSA writer now limits the prebuffer time to 500ms.
+ - Documentation improvements.
+ - Overhaul of the command_util.sh script.
+ - Fixes for some minor problems found by the clang analyzer.
+ - Compiles (almost) without warnings on gcc-3.
+ - Robustness improvements of the buffer tree code.
