-0.4.5 (to be announced) "symmetric randomization"
--------------------------------------------------
+-----------------------------------------------
+0.4.6 (to be announced) "deterministic entropy"
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+Lots of ogg/vorbis improvements, 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.
+	- ogg timing fixes and performance improvements
+	- 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.
-	- Improved documentation and error diagnostics.
 	- Switching off the DCCP sender works again.
 	- para_audiod handles crashes of para_server more robustly.
-	- Internal scheduler cleanups.
+	- 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.
