-0.4.4 (to be announced) "persistent regularity"
------------------------------------------------
+-------------------------------------------
+0.4.8 (to be announced) "nested assignment"
+-------------------------------------------
+
+	- audiod: The format specifier for receivers, filters and
+	  writers is now treated as a regular expression. This allows
+	  to replace 5 lines in the config file (one for each audio
+	  format) by one single line. See the manual for details.
+	- Compiles cleanly also with llvm/clang.
+
+--------------------------------------
+0.4.7 (2011-06-01) "infinite rollback"
+--------------------------------------
+
+The new ao writer, support for ssh RSA keys and a couple of other
+enhancements.
+
+	- Support for ESD, Pulseaudio, AIX, Solaris, IRIX and other
+	  platforms through the libao audio library.
+	- Support for RSA keys generated with ssh-keygen.
+	- configure: improved options for ogg/vorbis/speex.
+	- The git version reported by --version always matches HEAD.
+	- The autogen script detects the number of processors and
+	  runs a parallel make if possible.
+	- Major cleanup of the crypto API.
+	- Documentation updates.
+
+------------------------------------------
+0.4.6 (2011-03-31) "deterministic entropy"
+------------------------------------------
+
+Lots of ogg/vorbis improvements, the new test suite, enhancements
+for para_gui and a fair amount of other bug fixes.
+
+	- For DCCP/OGG streams the audio file header is only sent once
+	  at the beginning of the stream rather than periodically
+	  every five seconds. This reduces network traffic and the
+	  FEC group size.
+	- The vorbis comment header is replaced by an empty dummy header
+	  before the header is sent over the network. This also results in
+	  less network traffic and smaller FEC groups.
+	- The new "test" make target allows to perform some sanity checks prior
+	  to installing the package.
+	- ogg timing fixes and performance improvements
+	- Scheduler improvements
+	- Proper exit codes for para_write
+	- para_gui: New option --theme to select a startup theme. Several
+	  other improvements and fixes.
+	- aacdec error message cleanups
+	- simplified color error handling
+
+--------------------------------------------
+0.4.5 (2010-12-17) "symmetric randomization"
+--------------------------------------------
+
+Bug fixes, internal cleanups and variable-sized FEC slices.
+
+	- Contains a fix for an invalid-free-bug in the ogg audio format
+	  handler code.
+	- Switching off the DCCP sender works again.
+	- para_audiod handles crashes of para_server more robustly.
+	- Internal scheduler and writer cleanups.
+	- Reduced latency due to variable-sized FEC slices.
+	- Improved documentation and error diagnostics.
+	- The build of para_server is now optional, allowing the build
+	  to succeed in case libosl is not installed.
+
+------------------------------------------
+0.4.4 (2010-08-06) "persistent regularity"
+------------------------------------------
+
+Support for yet another audio format, para_write improvements and
+bug fixes.
 
-	- aacdec: Fix a bug which could make the AAC decoder segfault.
+	- Support for the speex codec.
 	- Support for sample formats other than 16 bit little endian.
+	- error2.h is now created by a perl script which speeds up configure
+	  considerably.
+	- Fix a bug in the aac decoder which could lead to segfaults in
+	  para_filter/para_audiod.
+	- Fixes for autoconf-2.66.
