+paraslash.0.3.0 -- 'WWDBND --what would databases never do?'.
+
+
+Usually one might expect lots of new features AND a big increase in size
+for a major release like this.
+
+However, this release is smaller than the latest 0.2.x releases. The
+decrease in size is mostly due to the removal of some graphical tools
+(which were only quick hacks anyway). But also the fact that the
+mysql code is gone cuts down the size a bit.
+
+Being independent of mysql comes at a cost: The fact that paraslash
+now contains its own database (the object storage layer, ols) increases
+the (stripped) binary size of para_server by ~50K on i386.
+
+ - no more restrictions on unique basenames.
+ - independent of mysql: The new self-contained object
+ storage layer (osl) replaces the mysql database.
+ - New executable para_fsck: Check integrity of osl tables.
+ - Lyrics support.
+ - Reliable audio file move/rename detection.
+ - More portable than ever: Tested on Linux (x86_32, x86_64, sparc64),
+ MacOS (ppc32, x86_32), FreeBSD (x86_32), NetBSD (x86_32) and
+ Solaris (sparc64).
+ - the new osl-based audio file selector (afs) replaces the random,
+ the playlist and the mysql selector of paraslash-0.2.x.
+ - IPv6 support (thanks to Gerrit Renker).
+ - paraslash-0.2.x streams are now called "moods". Writing
+ 0.3.x-mood definitions should be both easier and more
+ powerful than writing 0.2.x-stream definitions.
+ - para_krell, para_slider, para_para_sdl_gui, para_dbadm have
+ been removed. The world is a better place without them. However,
+ para_gui is still there.
+ - afs tracks audio file selection also in playlist mode.
+ - few easy-to-use afs commands replace the many not-so-easy-to-use
+ mysql commands (and are available also in playlist mode).
+ - Improved error subsystem.
+ - The earth-shaking new logo.
