* ./doc/vlc-howto.sgml : Fixed typos ;
* ./include/vlc_common.h : Greatly simplified ntoh*, and U??_AT macros are
  now alignment-safe ;
* ./STATUS : New file indicating who's working on what. Please keep it
  up-to-date ;
* ./MAINTAINERS : New file indicating who has knowledge on which parts.

  * ./README: removed much outdated data.
  * ./debian/*: great package renaming - names should make more sense now.

    when the audio output fifo could not be created.

    comment on usability.

of a file, so more files can be read :))

 However with current cvs this demux ( with and without the patch )
segfaults after a few seconds, I can't find why, anybody has an idea ?

  * ./src/libvlc.c: removed calls to vlc_mutex_lock in sighandlers.

    DirectX-blackscreen, device permissions, debug messages,
    config file, (un)planned ports/features, sources.list

file only), and seek is allowed (but with great unsynchronisation,
and sometimes it fails). But in order to make it working, I have to
limit the number of bytes I read at a time. It's strange since in
previous version of vlc, I don't need to do that ... ( it segfaults in
input_SplitBuffer but not always on the same frame )

 * ./plugins/win32/about.*: Added the version number in the About box

    strndup to a separate file so that Win32 can benefit from it.
  * ./include/vlc_threads.h: Borland compilation fix.

  * ./debian/rules: activated the vlc-xosd, vlc-kde and mozilla-plugin-vlc
    Debian packages.
  * ./po/*: updated potfiles.

    module names. Try for instance: "vlc --intf gnome,gtk,dummy".

  * configure.in: added -lintl to plugins_LDFLAGS.

    of vlc from crashing when trying to open a recent module.

    instead of moving the current window, which saves us the hassle of
    remembering size and position.
  * ./plugins/x11/x11.c, ./plugins/x11/xvideo.c: added --no-x11-shm and
    --no-xvideo-shm options.

disable audio or video !)and cannot support seeking( will just stop ).
Moreover it can't work for all files, only interleaved ones.

    an emtpy playlist.

  * ./plugins/spudec/spu_decoder.c: endianness fix for subtitles colour.
  * ./plugins/spudec/spu_decoder.c: little hack for preventing blank alpha
    palette.
  * ./plugins/spudec/spu_decoder.c: subtitle transparency support.

   Patches imported from v0_4_1_branch.

    extra plugin location.
  * ./plugins/text/rc.c: if stdin/stdout are not connected to a TTY, we
    don't launch the rc interface.
  * ./plugins/access/http.c: fixed a compilation warning.
  * ./src/misc/messages.c: cosmetic enhancements in the message output.

    tell vlc to draw in an existing drawable instead of creating a new window.

faster and in prevision of VOD by http, but not yet functionnal ). But
sound becomes horrible, I will try to fix it as soon as possible.

* ./include/configuration.h: renamed MODULE_CONFIG_* macros into
CONFIG_*.
* ./include/configuration.h, ./plugins/gtk/gtk_preferences.c,
./plugins/filter/transform.c, ./plugins/filter/distort.c,
./plugins/filter/deinterlace.c: added an ADD_STRING_FROM_LIST()
configuration macro.
* ./include/modules.h, ./include/video_output.h,
./src/video_output/video_output.c, ./plugins/filters/*: added a
VOUT_FILTER capability. Having a clear distinction between VOUTs and
VOUT_FILTERs allows us to get rid of ugly hacks. The filters are also
stackable now (use --filter=foo:bar:foo etc..).
* ./include/configuration.h, ./src/libvlc.h, ./src/libvlc.c: clean-up +
added an ADD_USAGE_HINT() configuration macro.
