+/*Version 0.3.8.1*/
+* Fixed a bug that caused compilation to fail on some platforms, due
+to missing headers.
+* Minor code refactoring to assist maintainability and
+portability of the program.
+
+
+/*Version 0.3.8*/
+* Extensive refactoring and cleanups of the code from Martin Nordholts.
+* Cursor-flickering bug has been fixed, by Martin.
+* Improved consistency on the format of the commandline options
+and updated the manpage to reflect the changes (also by Martin ;) ).
+* Applied patch by Luca Bonavita, that corrects the rgb
+to yuv algorithm and provides near perfect colorspace conversion
+(fixes bug #1961505)
+* Compositing Window managers are now recognised through the _NET_WM_CM_Sn
+hint instead of a simplistic namelist (which means that dual-mode wm's like
+kwin or yet uknown ones will be handled correctly).
+* Changed the way Jack support is offered, from dlopening at runtime to normal
+linking at compilation.
+* other minor changes and bugfixes.
+
+/*Version 0.3.7.3*/
+* Fixed bug #1886713 (XCB related crash)
+
+
+/*Version 0.3.7.2*/
+* Updated src/skeleton.c from libboggz trunk
+(fix for big endian hosts)
+
+/*Version 0.3.7.1*/
+* Added skeleton bitstream in encoded files.
+* minor bugfixes
+
+/*Version 0.3.7*/
+*Added configurable,global shortcuts for
+pause/unpause and stop.
+*Added frame that surrounds the capture area.
+*New rescue feature (allows encoding of
+crashed/interrupted sessions).
+*fixed overcapture on no-sound
+*fixed deadlock and behavior on fps<=1
+*fixed crash when using --no-shared
+*other minor bugfixes
+
+/*Version 0.3.6*/
+* Corrected segmentation fault when recording non-fullscreen areas, using the
+full-shots mode(i.e. no Xdamage)
+* Fixed arrays boundary overstep in BlocksFromList (resulting in segfault,
+especially when compiled with -fstack-protector)
+* Removed the need for Xdamage to be present even when it is not used.
+* Added follow-mouse option(i.e. capture area tracks the mouse cursor).
+
+/*Version 0.3.5.1*/
+* Corrected segmentation fault when recording non-fullscreen areas
+(bug-report and solution to the problem provided Sander Jansen)
+* Corrected incorrect allocation of queued sound buffers
+(could cause segmentation faults in FreeBSD)
+* Corrected dlopen lookup on *bsd (libc instead of libdl)
+
+/*VERSION 0.3.5*/
+*Corrected cursor top/left behavior, fixed xfixes cursor placing.
+*Double buffered capturing on full-shots, to convert only changed pixels to yuv.
+*Cache block information is now is more efficiently extracted from the damage list
+(when using xdamage) and during the rgb2yuv conversion(when using full shots).
+*Jack client uniquely named, to allow simultaneous recordings when using it.
+*updated man page
+*removed uneccesary calculation of the alpha component when
+calculating average pixel value for the u and v planes
+*Ub,Vr replaced with UvBr
+*changed scope of image buffer to be local in GetFrame
+
+/*VERSION 0.3.4*/
+*Fixed configure script to exit when zlib is not found.
+*Fixed behavior of the program when using both the MIT-Shm and Xdamage extensions.
+As a result, less memory is now required and all options related to conditional usage of
+shared memory are gone. Shared memory is now on by default and the --with-shared
+option is substituted by --no-shared.
+*The --drop-frames option has been removed.
+*The dummy cursor has been updated to look better.
+
+
+/*VERSION 0.3.3.1*/
+*Fixed ring buffer size, to be independant of the
+size that jack uses internally
+(small buffer sizes could create sound distrortion problems).
+
+/*VERSION 0.3.3*/
+*Improved cache format. Blocks are now cached at 16x16 for y plane
+and 8x8 for u,v planes.
+*Added support for compiltion with OSS instead of alsa.
+(Minor other changes to make compilation on FreeBSD possible)
+*Added support for recording audio through Jack.
+*Many other bugfixes.
+
+/*VERSION 0.3.2*/
+*Added support for displays with 16bpp color depth.
+*A bug has been fixed, that caused the Xfixes cursor to appear
+distorted on amd64.
+*A lot of code refactoring and cleanups of duplicated parts.
+
+/*VERSION 0.3.1*/
+*Added Added custom X error handler, to avoid BadWindow on
+XGetWindowAttributes, with XQueryTree.
+*Fixed sound_buffer initialization, which could cause segfault in startup.
+*Corrected buffer size in sound recoding.
+(Added new option to specify buffer size).
+*Corrected interleaving of audio and video streams.
+*Fixed missing end-of-stream in generated files.
+*Applied patch submitted by Andreas Zwinkau,
+correcting program crash/segfault, when run under
+window managers that don't conform
+to the FreeDesktop specification.
+
+
+/*VERSION 0.3.0r2*/
+*Minor corrections on the inclusion of the include/ directory in the project.
+
+/*VERSION 0.3.0r1*/
+*Fixed paused function, which was broken in 0.3.0
+
+/*VERSION 0.3.0*/
+*Implemented cache functionality
+(Encoding by default happens right after the recording)
+*Better damage event handling.
+*Saving under the same file-name,no longer deletes the previous one,
+instead it saves under a number postfixed file.
+*Opening the sound device doesn't block anymore.
+*A few new options were added related to caching.
+*Program now checks if it is run uder a known 3d compositing window manager
+and set behavior accordingly, to reduce the need for extra options at launch.
+*documented all fuctions in header.
+*Removed unneeded casts that bloated the code.
+*Updated man page.
+*Corrected X11 library checking during configuration.
+*Removed uneeded bitmap screenshot function.
+
+
+/*VERSION 0.2.6*/
+*Behavior on stream desync has been changed.
+Now, instead of dropping sound buffers, image
+capturing speeds up. That is, waiting for timer to
+expire is disabled until sync is achieved.
+When not recording sound, this does not apply.
+*Theora return values are now properly checked,
+to avoid inserting corrupt packages into the stream.
+*Major memory leaks have been fixed. These were related
+to the rectangle insertion algorithm and discarding of
+used sound buffers,
+*Segmentation fault on seemingly random occasions has been
+found and is now fixed. Reason was lack of thread safety over
+libogg calls.
+
+
+/*VERSION 0.2.5*/
+*Drawing of the correct cursor is now supported through
+the Xfixes extension.
+*Change of behavior on lack of any Xserver extension and
+failure to open sound device. The program now exits and informs
+instead of continuing with a different configuration.
+*Exit status also indicates the nature of any error that occured.
+*Documentation has been updated with exit status explanations.
+*Subsampling of the chroma planes is made by averaging, while
+pixel discarding is an option(used to be otherwise).
+
+
+/*VERSION 0.2.4*/
+*Behavior on lack of $DISPLAY evironment
+variable has been corrected.
+*Size adjustment is now quantized at 16 pixels,
+in order to avoid complete image distortion,
+present at certain resolutions, when using shared memory
+(conditional or not).
+*Some other minor bugfixes, related mostly to default
+values of options.
+
+
+/*VERSION 0.2.3*/
+*Problems on big-endian architectures, corrected
+(thanks to Marcel Unbehaun for bringing up the problem
+and providing the neccessary feedback to resolve it).
+*Failure to respect change in channels number, while
+opening soundcard, which resulted in crashes, segfaults
+and repeated error-messages has been fixed.
+*other minor bugfixes
+
+
+/*VERSION 0.2.2*/
+*Changes to the configure script.
+*BGR to YUV convertion corrected.
+
+
+/*VERSION 0.2.1*/
+*Unupdated lines bug fixed.
+*Fuzzy cursor at border bug fixed.
+*Incorrect display of windows that
+extended beyond recording height fixed.
+*Size adjustement that resulted in extra
+or missing pixels at borders has been corrected.
+New adjustment is 8 pixels max,split evenly if possible.
+*The option to drop frames has been added.
+*The option to do better subsampling has been added.
+*Default behavior now is to use shared memory when
+size of image gets over 75% of total (or a user set threshold).
+*Many other minor bugfixes.
