-0.?.? (to be announced) "volatile relativity"
+0.5.0 (to be announced) "invertible validity"
 ---------------------------------------------
 
+	- The sideband compatibility code has been removed, hence
+	  sideband connections (introduced in 0.4.11) are now mandatory.
+	- Addblob commands can produce output.
+	- The stat command no longer sends garbage when para_server was
+	  compiled against libgcrypt.
+	- Dependencies for gengetopt files are computed automatically.
+	  This eliminates a constant source of build bugs.

+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.
