+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.
+	- The setatt command now accepts file name patterns rather than only
+	  path names.
+	- overview.pdf is now based on dia, a simple diagram creation program.
+	  The new version is much more detailed and contains descriptions of
+	  the various programs of the paraslash package.
+	- The separator of all multi-word options has been changed from
+	  underscore to dash. For example --log_color becomes --log-color.
+	- New logo.
+
+--------------------------------------
+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.
