-------------------------------------------------
-0.2.14 (to be announced) "transient singularity"
-------------------------------------------------
+----------------------------------------------
+0.2.17 (to be announced) "isotropic threshold"
+----------------------------------------------
+
+Only bugfixes and cleanups in this version which marks the end of
+the 0.2.x series if no serious bugs show up after the release.
+
+	- be more carful wrt. signed vs. unsigned argument passing.
+	- cleanup error.h and fix some references to invalid error
+	  codes.
+
+--------------------------------------
+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)
+
+-----------------------------------------
+0.2.15 (2007-02-16) "inductive resonance"
+-----------------------------------------
+
+Minor improvements, more documentation and a bunch of bug fixes.
+
+	- para_server: The server.users file is only read once on server
+	  startup rather than for each connection
+	- mp3dec: Fix decoding of corrupt mp3 files
+	- afs (audio file sender) is now called vss (virtual streaming
+	  system). Consequently, the permission flags specified in
+	  ~/.paraslash/server.users have also changed: AFS_READ and AFS_WRITE
+	  become VSS_READ and VSS_WRITE respectively.
+	- para_audiod/para_filter: Fix a bug that caused the last chunk
+	  of audio data not being written under certain circumstances
+	- audiod: compute the difference of server time and local time
+	  correctly
+	- para_server/para_audiod: Fix some memory leaks
+	- documentation improvements
+	- configure.ac: fix checks for para_krell
+	- new man pages
+
+-------------------------------------------
+0.2.14 (2006-10-15) "transient singularity"
+-------------------------------------------
 
 The only major enhancement of this version is the osx writer which completes
 the Mac OS Port and was originally planned already for 0.2.13 but had to wait
