-0.2.15 (to be announced) "inductive resonance"
-----------------------------------------------
+--------------------------------------
+0.2.16 (2007-04-05) "neural discharge"
+--------------------------------------
+
+The main change in this release is the major audio format handler
+cleanup which removes some similar/duplicate code and makes it easier
+to implement plugins for other audio formats. Of course, the usual mix
+of other improvements/changes/bugfixes also made it into the release.
+
+ - simplified audio format handlers (most of the handling functions
+ were moved one layer up to the virtual streaming system).
+ - para_server uses mmap to read audio files
+ - repositioning of mp3 streams is much faster, in particular for
+ jumping near the end of large mp3 files.
+ - permission flags DB_READ,DB_WRITE have been renamed to AFS_READ
+ and AFS_WRITE.
+ - fix a bug in para_filter that caused decoding of aac files
+ to start only after a few seconds.
+ - fix osx_writer hangs
+ - simplified dccp code (thanks to Gerrit Renker)
+ - the compress filter works also on big endian systems (ppc)
