-0.2.14 (to be announced) "transient singularity"
-------------------------------------------------
-
-	- new output plugin for MacOs: the osx writer
-	- configure: new command line options: --enable-mad-headers
-	  and --enable-mad-libs
-	- some small robustness fixes
+------------------------------------------
+0.?.? (to be announced) "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)
+
+-----------------------------------------
+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
+until now for reasons beyond the scope of this changelog entry.
+
+	- new output plugin for Mac Os: the osx writer
+	- rename configure command line options from --enable-xxx-headers to
+	  --with-xxx-headers and  --enable-xxx-libs to --with-xxx-libs
+	- configure: new command line options: --with-mad-headers,
+	  --with-mad-libs, --with-oggvorbis-headers, and --with-oggvorbis-libs
+	- some robustness fixes
+	- dymamic audio format recognition for audiod
+	- para_server: new command line option: --autoplay_delay
+	- para_audiod: new command line option: --clock_diff_count
