-0.4.11 (to be announced) "mutual diversity"
+0.4.14 (2016-12-31) "branching oscillation"
-------------------------------------------
+Many fixes for nasty bugs have accumulated over the years since 0.4.13
+was released in 2013. This release contains all of them. It is the
+last v0.4.x release, so v0.4.x is now end of life. The maint branch
+of the git repository has been forwarded to v0.5.7 and will start to
+receive important fixes for 0.5.x, which is now in maintenance mode.
+
+ - Fix for the "double encryption bug" with gcrypt, which caused
+ garbage to be sent to stat clients.
+ - The "prev" command of para_play now works as expected.
+ - Invalid parameters for the begin and end chunk no longer cause
+ the afh receiver of para_recv to segfault.
+ - A fix for an assertion that triggered in the FEC slice setup code.
+ - Closing the terminal with a running para_gui causes the process to
+ die, rather than using 100% of CPU time.
+ - para_gui no longer shows stale information about the previous
+ audio file.
+ - A fix for a bug in the fec decoder which caused aborts if the buffer
+ pool filled up.
+ - The assertion in the buffer tree code no longer triggers.
+ - The "afs_event: table moods, event 0: key already exists in rbtree"
+ error no longer occurs on attribute changes.
+ - A NULL pointer dereference in com_sender() has been fixed.
+ - The -i option of lsatt works as advertised.
+ - Various fixes for the build system.

+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.
+
+--------------------------------------
+0.4.11 (2012-07-20) "mutual diversity"
+--------------------------------------
+
+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.
