 0.?.? (to be announced) "oriented abstraction"
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Many user-visible changes in this release and lots of new
+features:
+
 
 	o the new optional dccp sender/receiver. It uses the datagram
 	congestion control protocol. You'll need a fairly new kernel
 	for this.
 
+	o paraslash compiles under MacOs (thanks to Gerd Becker)
+
+	o para_play renamed to para_write
+
+	o modular output plugin design (writers) for para_write
+
+	o new file_writer output plugin for para_write
+
 	o compress filter speed improvements
 
 	o update to libortp-0.9.1
 
 	o update to gengetopt-2.17
 
+	o para_client no longer depends on libreadline (as the
+	code for the interactive mode was removed).
+
+	o gcc-2-95 is no longer a supported compiler. It may still
+	work, but it gets no more testing.
+
+	o the tarball no longer contains the screenshot images which
+	reduces its size quite a bit.
+
+	o configure: new command line options: --enable-mysql-headers
+	and --enable-mysql-libs
+
