  0.4.11 (to be announced) "mutual diversity"
  -------------------------------------------
  
++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
  	  removed.
  	- Several fixes and latency improvements to various decoders.
--	- The alsa writer now limits the prebuffer time to 500ms.
++	- 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.
