+
+The major feature in this release is the new sideband API for
+client-server communication. This API will be used exclusively starting
+with 0.5.0, which breaks backward compatibility but allows to get rid
+of quite some compatibility code. Other noteworthy changes include
+decoder latency improvements and a long-standing bug fix for the
+ALSA writer.
+
+	- Sideband connections: If both para_server and para_client
+	  support this feature, data is sent as a multiplexed stream.
 	- The --no_default_filters option of para_filter has been
-	  depricated. It still works but has no effect and will be
-	  removed in the next version.
+	  removed.
+	- Several fixes and latency improvements to various decoders.
+	- The ALSA writer now limits the prebuffer time to 500ms.
+	- Documentation improvements.
+	- Overhaul of the command_util.sh script.
+	- Fixes for some minor problems found by the clang analyzer.
+	- Compiles (almost) without warnings on gcc-3.
+	- Robustness improvements of the buffer tree code.

+0.4.10 (2012-03-30) "heterogeneous vacuum"
+------------------------------------------
+
+Nothing earth-shaking in this release, but quite a few usability
+improvements and the usual mix of cleanups and fixes.
+
+	- The --no_default_filters option of para_filter has been
+	  deprecated. It still works but has no effect and will be
+	  removed in the next version.
+	- para_gui now prints also the stderr output of the executing
+	  command in the bottom window.
+	- Cleanup and consolidation of the various wrappers for
+	  write(), writev(), send() and friends.
+	- The obscure error messages on mmap() failures have been
+	  replaced by meaningful messages. This affects mainly
+	  para_afh.
+	- para_audioc: Cleanups and memory leak fixes.
+	- Test 0004-server no longer fails if para_server is not
+	  being built.
+	- New configure options: --with-id3tag-{headers,libs}.
