-0.5.2 (???) "orthogonal interior"
----------------------------------
+-------------------------------------------------
+0.5.3 (to be released) "symbolic synchronization"
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+	- Various alsa-related fixes, mostly for the raspberry pi.
+	- The test suite has been extended to include sanity checks
+	  for the generated man pages.
+	- ao_writer fixes. This writer was in a quite bad shape. Many
+	  serious bugs have been fixed.
+	- new audiod command: version.
+	- Minor improvements to the bitstream API.
+	- The cpsi command now prints a meaningful error message if
+	  none of the given patterns matched any audio file.
 
+----------------------------------------
+0.5.2 (2014-04-11) "orthogonal interior"
+----------------------------------------
+
+The new sync filter, the AES_CTR128 stream cipher and the overhauled
+network code are the highlights of this release. It also includes a
+fair number of smaller fixes and improvements not mentioned here.
+
+	- The new sync filter synchronizes playback between multiple
+	  clients.
+	- Connections between para_server and para_client are now
+	  encrypted by means of AES rather than RC4 if both sides
+	  support it. RC4 is still available as a fallback. This
+	  feature is fully transparent, i.e. no command line options
+	  are necessary, and a client linked against openssl can
+	  speak with a server linked against libgcrypt and vice versa.
+	- Major cleanup of the networking subsystem.
+	- Improvements to para_fade: the new set mode, multi-channel
+	  initial volumes, better error logging.
+	- The man pages of para_audiod, para_filter, para_recv, and
+	  para_write contain the relevant options for receivers, filters,
+	  writers. This broke in 0.5.0.
+	- ogg/vorbis latency improvements.
+	- Improved user manual.
 	- Minor fixes to avoid clang warnings.
