* Added a dummy libdvdcss so that the DVD plugin can be used without
    libdvdcss. It will try to dlopen() libdvdcss at runtime, though,
    and will use the dummy functions only if it couldn't find a valid
    libdvdcss. This is probably only useful to package maintainers.

  * Tidied the snapshot-* Makefile rules.
  * Tidied the modules Makefiles.
  * Removed useless stuff in the debian/ directory.
  * Removed the "make all" kludge in the Makefile.opts rule. I hope this
    patch is harmless on all systems.

  * Updated version numbers for imminent release.
  * Fixed the --with-dvdcss flag:
     o --with-dvdcss - build libdvdcss, link statically (also default behaviour)
     o --with-dvdcss=local-static - build libdvdcss, link statically
     o --with-dvdcss=local-shared - build libdvdcss, link dynamically
     o --with-dvdcss=/foo/bar - don't build libdvdcss, use libdvdcss in /foo/bar
  * Fixed an omission in the dvdcss.h header.

  * Fixed the BeOS compile typo.
  * The ALSA plugin is back.
  * A gift for Gildas: plugins don't rely on backlinking any more. The
    drawback is the dirty magic in include/modules_export.h which has to
    be included whenever a module needs one of the functions in it. But
     a) we should less and less rely on those functions
     b) no plugin code modification was needed

   The BeOS and MacOS X modules may be broken when compiled as plugins,
   I'll check this later when I can reboot under BeOS.

  * Updated debian control files and disabled ALSA for this version.

  * All Debian packages are now lintian-clean.
  * Fixed XVideo plugin linking.

  * Beginning of the built-in modules support.

   A few words about the changes:

  - heavy Makefile butchery has taken place, each plugin now has its own
    Makefile. I know recursive make blablah harmful, but it was just so
    much easier to do this way.

  - Makefile.in has disappeared, we now generate Makefile.opts with
    the overall configuration options, and Makefile.modules which is
    specific to module compilation.

  - After ./configure has been run you may want to modify Makefile.opts
    to check which modules will be compiled built-in or as plugins.

  - Some modules cannot be compiled built-in right now because proper
    linkage doesn't work yet. We don't really care since they're the
    interface or video output modules. The most important stuff works
    (iDCT, motion, YUV, input).

  - It's perfectly valid to compile a module both as built-in and as a
    plugin. vlc will only load the built-in one, but I'll add an option
    to ignore built-in modules for testing purposes.

  - We *should* see a performance increase here. I didn't have much time
    to test it, but if anyone can confirm and perhaps give a rough
    estimate of how much we gain...

  * Updated version number to 0.2.71 (release today).

  * Merged 6 months of CVS logs to the ChangeLog file.
    The vlc changelog can now be viewed here:
       http://www.videolan.org/vlc/changelog.html

  * Fixed a lintian error in debian/rules.
  * XVideo resize patch by Shane Harper <shanegh@optusnet.com.au>.

  * Fixed icons location and Debian desktop menus.

  * Fixed Debian sparc build for real (Closes: Debian bug #89285).

  * Bug fixes and enhancements in the Gtk+/Gnome interfaces.

   o the slider should behave correctly and stop jumping here and
     there (this bug is _not_ related to Stef's similar bug)
   o added an "open network" menu (useless since the input doesn't
     handle it properly yet)
   o tried to reorganize gnome_callbacks.c and gtk_callbacks.c
   o stream date is now displayed instead of percentage
   o renamed gnome_sys.h to intf_gnome.h, and gtk_sys.h to intf_gtk.h

  * Changed documentation and package creation files.

   o added versioned conflicts/replaces to vlc-gtk (Closes Debian bug #88796)
   o removed useless or outdated documentation from doc/*
   o moved vlc.1 manpage from debian/vlc.1 to doc/vlc.1

  * Added basic Qt interface.

   o working features: slide bar, open file, toolbar, popup menu
   o added "qvlc" alias, equivalent to "vlc -I qt"
   o known issues : no "open disc" or "open network" menus yet
                    the IntfWindow class is never cleaned on destruction
                    the popup menu always pop at the middle of the screen

  * Misc fixes/updates.

   o renamed netutils.h functions from input_* to network_*
   o renamed *plst* files and functions to *playlist* (it was stupid
     from me to name them "plst")
   o made a few input error messages more meaningful
   o added -I, -A and -V short flags, corresponding to --intf, --audio
     and --video

    I got a lot of conflicts on this commit, lart me if I forgot a
  file or made old bugs reappear.

  * fixed headers for FreeBSD compilation.
  * fixed debian/rules for non-x86 packages (Closes: Debian bug #88583).

  * Added debian/* files to help generating CSS-enabled non-US packages,
    and changed plugins/dvd/* to reflect this change.
  * Added .xpm icons (fixes lintian warnings).
  * --help output and manpage are now in sync (Closes Debian bug #87478).
  * Fixed Build-dpends entry in debian/control (Closes Debian bug #83707).

  * The Gtk+ interface is now built as a Debian package as well. The Gnome
    package depends on it because of the icon and menu entry.
  * Added an intf_WarnHexDump() function to do raw hexadecimal dumps of
    memory areas. For debugging purposes or for real men, as you wish.
  * Lots of tidying in dvd_ioctl.c, a few comments added.
  * Better error handling in the subpicture decoder.
  * Tidied video_spu.c. More to come later.
  * Fixed subtitle displaying. Will soon work in overlay mode as well.

  * Ported Glide and MGA plugins to the new module API. MGA never worked,
    so this didn't make it work better.
  * Started thinking about built-in modules, and added some code to
    make it easier eventually.
  * Added Oct in the AUTHORS file.
  * Fixed a mistake in configure.in.
  * All your base are belong to us.
  * Fixed a bug in src/misc/modules which prevented loading modules
    when launched from the Tracker.
  * Fixed a similar bug in src/video_output/video_text.c.
  * BeOS CSS support, thanks to Markus Kuespert <ltlBeBoy@beosmail.com>
    who ported the Linux DVD ioctls. We can now read encrypted DVDs
    under BeOS ! Woohoo.

 * Upgraded version number to 0.2.61. Release is today.

 * Fixed package building (both RPMs and .debs).
 * Fixed `make snapshot' rule.
 * Added some magic to filename detection. To read a DVD you now just
   need to run 'vlc dvd:/dev/hdc' for instance. Same for file:// URIs.
 * Fixed a segfault in the slider when no stream was playing.
 * Made the slider go from 0 to 100 (instead of 99 :)
 * The vlc now doesn't exit when finished playing. As a side effect of
   the playlist code being very recent, it continuously loops.

 . patched 2 debian bugs
    (see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=vlc)
 . improved the snapshot generation

 . changed program version to 0.2.5 (preparing 0.3.0 release).
 . changed codename to Urumov
 . cleaned a lot of stuff in the Debian package generation.

  If anyone objects with the versioning scheme, let's fight in the
  dirt and sort that out. Or change it yourself.

  Debian packages can be tried here: http://armitage.via.ecp.fr/~sam/vlc/

 . made the audio_output API a bit simpler.

 . got rid of modules_config.h.

 . fixed `make install' rule.

 . fixed warnings in the MMX YUV compilation.

 . probably fixed a bug in the input : pp_foo structures were free()d at
   the end, but this was useless since the last call to realloc() is
   equivalent to free(), and two consecutive calls to free() aren't a
   goo idea.

 . we check that the version number match and that we don't already have
   a module by that name when loading a new module.

 . all public module_* functions now properly lock the module bank.

 . the audio_output now uses the new module API ; EsounD and DSP modules
   have been ported, which should be enough for Henri to port the ALSA one.


   The new plugin API is now much simpler ; it's now just a matter of
calling module_Need( p_main->p_module_bank, MODULE_CAPABILITY_FOO, p_data );
and if successful we get the best module. Capabilities can be ORed, so that
one can ask for a plugin that does VOUT _and_ INTF actions for instance.

   It's not complete yet though -- by making it generic I had to do a few
ugly casts here and there, which I am going to fix ASAP. Also, command line
selection of a plugin does not work yet.

   The switch to the new plugin API has probably broken the BeOS audio
output ; we can either wait until the whole vlc has switched to the new
plugins, or create a separate beos_sound.so that conforms to the new API.

 . added the vlc-sdl package in the Debian control files

    -march=pentium directive. thanks Meuuh, blame sam.
  * fixed a warning in main.c.
  * separate Debian packages.
  * added request for ALSA support in the TODO list.

 . version 0.1.99f
 . divers fixes dans la cr�ation des packages

 . typo dans src/interface/main.c

 . le vlc ne meurt pas salement en mode framebuffer quand on change
  de console (par contre, segfault en quittant, je ne sais pas encore
  pourquoi)
 . le make est � nouveau un peu plus verbose

   - fichiers de contr�le pour dpkg-buildpackage
   - une ic�ne de merde - que les artistes la remplacent
   - page de man
 . les donn�es qui ne sont pas platform-dependant sont maintenant
  dans le r�pertoire share ( et plus lib )
 . le client va chercher les polices dans le r�pertoire courant
  et dans /usr/share/videolan/vlc/
 . le message pr�c�dent �tait l'ajout du r�pertoire share/ mais
  les scripts CVS semblent avoir d�conn�
