+0.5.0 (2013-08-23) "invertible validity"
+----------------------------------------
+
+Some API-breaking changes, one serious bug fix, and a lot of bike-shedding.
+
+	- 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.
+	- Overhauled web pages and the new logo.
