Mention the new dccp sender/receiver.

- para_audiod (optional, but recommended):
- The local daemon that starts playback and collects information
- from para_server to be forwarded to local clients.
-
- para_audiod reads the audio stream from the network if
- para_server indicates that there is a stream available. It may
- be sent through any of the supported filters (see para_filter
- above) before the result is fed to the output software
- (default: para_play) which must be capable of reading from
- stdin, but is not restricted otherwise.
+ The local daemon that collects information from para_server. It
+ starts an appropriate receiver, filter and player as soon
+ as para_server announces the availability (and the type) of
+ an audio stream. para_audiod listens on a local socket and
+ sends status information about para_server and para_audiod
+ to local clients on request.
- para_audioc (optional, but recommended)

- A small client that can talk to para_audiod. Used to control

- grab the stream at any point in the filter chain. para_audioc
- is needed by para_gui, para_sdl_gui and para_krell, see below.
