* ./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.

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

* updated MSVC++ project.
* small corrections to the LONGTEXT descriptions in main.c.

* Added a mpeg_ts_dvbpsi module tha uses libdvbpsi to decode PSIs. It is
  used by default if the lib is found. It shares much code with mpeg_ts

  * ./po/fr.po: completed the french translation.
  * ./plugins/gtk/gtk.glade, ./plugins/gtk/gnome.glade: synchronized a few
    strings between the Gtk+ and GNOME modules to avoid duplicate translations.

  This should fix the problem that occured when reading a file directly
  extracted from a satellite card.
* UDP access plugin uses input_SetProgram.

  * ./AUTHORS: added people locations, just for fun.
  * ./configure.in: disabled SSE plugins when using mingw32.
  * ./src/misc/configuration.c: disabled the AltiVec warning message on the
    PowerPC platform because it was misleading.

  * ./AUTHORS: added myself :)
  * ./plugins/win32/mainframe.cpp: disabled the "hide interface" menu
    item, not yet implemented.
  * ./plugins/win32/about.dfm: replaced the outdated author list with a
    "VideoLAN Team" entry.

  * ALL: removed libdvdcss from the vlc tree.
  * ALL: removed libdvdread from the vlc tree.
  * ./acconfig.h: removed this file.
  * ./plugins/dvd/dummy_dvdcss.c: merged this file into dvd.c.
  * ./AUTHORS: moved a few gentlemen to the libdvdcss AUTHORS file.

  * ./po/ja.po: added Japanese translation from Fumio Nakayama
    <endymion@ca2.so-net.ne.jp>.
  * ./plugins/gtk/gtk_callbacks.c: fixed disc ejection code.
  * ./ChangeLog: how about a nice cup of 870 lines of ChangeLog for the 0.3.0
    release?

  * ./plugins/aa: aalib output plugin courtesy of Sigmund Augdal.
  * ./configure.in: fixed a few bashisms.
  * ./src/misc/configuration.c: fixed build under Solaris.
  * ./TODO: updated todo list.

for BT ;
* --6 and --4 options to force IPv6 or IPv4 (FIXME: it should be -6 and
-4 but I don't know how to do it with the new configuration module) ;
* Channel manager now uses a socket from the network plug-in and is more
portable (and probably broken, too :) ;
* input_ReadPS and input_ReadTS are now in mpeg_system.c to be more
easily reused by plug-ins other than mpeg_ps and mpeg_ts.

That's all for tonight.

 * Fixed DVD input under Win32.
 * Fixed input parser under win32, chich couldn't understand that
c:\windows\bureau is a valid file and doesn't need to be accessed with
the plugin 'C' :-)
 * BTW, I added myself in the AUTHORS file :)

  * ./po/no.po: Norwegian translation by Sigmund Augdal. Berd� ka p� t�t.
  * ./src/misc/modules.c: shortcuts for --intf work again, gvlc launches the
    Gtk interface, qvlc launches the Qt interface, etc.
  * ./plugins/fx/scope.c: we now have sound together with --aout scope.

    <sigmunau@stud.ntnu.no>, activate with --enable-lirc.
  * ./configure.in: put liba52_adec in a builtin for PIC/non-PIC reasons.

  * ./src/misc/modules_plugin.h: fixed a missing function initialization
    which made decoder plugins segfault in GetChunk calls.
  * ./configure.in: proper soundcard.h check from Yves Duret.

  * ./include/modules_inner.h: replaced _X with __VLC_SYMBOL because _X was
    already a system macro under MacOS X.
  * ./plugins/dummy/dummy.c: fixed vlc:loop, vlc:quit, etc. entries.
  * ./plugins/glide/glide.c: activated double buffering.
  * ./plugins/mga/xmga.c: started writing an xmga plugin; doesn't work yet.
  * ./src/input/input.c: fixed the input memory leak, and the insane thread
    spawning we got with vlc:loop.
  * ./src/misc/intf_eject.c: disc ejection routine courtesy of Julien Blache,
    currently Linux-only.

  * Added Jeffrey Baker to the AUTHORS file.
  * Fixed a PPC compilation issue.

  * HP-UX port of the DVD ioctls courtesy of David Sieb�rger.

  * (very old) russian translation courtesy of Valek Filippov <frob@df.ru>.
  * Fixed a charset issue in the french translation.

  * Updated config.guess and config.sub from GNU's latest versions (bozo,
    you may want to update them in vls as well).
  * Added vlc.pot skeleton for translators.

  * Removed unused code (intf_channels.c, keystrokes.h).
  * Put common_win32.h back into common.h -- it wasn't that big and we
    should not multiply header files.
  * Added gettext support by Thomas Graf <reeler@reeler.org>, may be
    broken on other platforms but we'll only see it when I'm finished
    with vout 4 :-)
  * Fixed a segfault on exit when no fast_memcpy module was found.

  * COMPLETE CVS BREAKAGE !! The MAIN branch is going to be a playground
    for my nevrotic and destructive pulsions during the next few hours!

  * If you want to test vlc, please use the v0_2_92_branch branch.

  * Stuff currently working:
     - direct to YUV buffer decoding
     - non-ugly subtitle blending
     - XVideo and SDL video output

  * Stuff currently utterly broken:
     - aspect ratio
     - software rendering (ie, all other video output plugins)

  * Additional misc changes:
     - Renamed spu_dec to spudec and mad_adec to mad to stay coherent with
       other plugins. Also, renamed mpeg to mpeg_system.
     - Added jobi to the AUTHORS file.
     - Factored code common to vout_x11.c and vout_xvideo.c.

  * aRts audio output courtesy of Emmanuel Blindauer <manu@agat.net>.
  * Fix to the esd plugin when esd-config --cflags is nonempty.

All decoders (audio, video, subtitles) are now modules.

- mpeg_vdec, mpeg_adec and ac3_adec are builtins by default
- ac3_spdif, spu_dec and lpcm_dec are plugins by default

Pflug <fgp@phlo.org>. Use it with -I macosx_qt.

 Changes to vlc:

  * Fixed arch-dependant build dependencies (Closes Debian bug #109722).
  * Minor changes to the (non-working) ncurses interface.

 Changes to libdvdcss (courtesy of H�kan Hjort <d95hjort@dtek.chalmers.se>):

  * If we see 3000 unencrypted blocks assume that the title is unencrypted.
  * If we have not seen any encrypted block and then discover that the block
    just read is not a valid block of an MPEG2 Program stream, assume that the
    title is unencrypted.
  * Empty keys (for unscrambled sectors) are now cached as well.
  * We try to decrypt the file even if DVD ioctls are not available.

(untested !) ;
* Local minor optimizations in IDCT ;
* Removed a hopeless kludge in input_clock.c

- performance boost ;
- fixed the "Dual Prime Arithmetic" bug ;
- 3DNow! motion compensation module ;
* BTW, fixed numerous bugs ;
* AC3dec statistics do not show up with --enable-stats, because I doubt
they're understandable by a normal human being, and they pollute the output.

  * Fixed a bug in the gtk interface which caused vlc to go amok after
    having met a zero-sized area.
  * Found out how to type '�' in vim :-)
  * Added missing bloat to modules_export.h.
  * 'snapshot*' rules do not depend on 'clean', and don't use /tmp anymore.
  * Added vlc:loop playlist command to go back at the beginning.
    Usage: vlc file1.mpeg file2.mpeg ... fileN.mpeg vlc:loop
    This change isn't very elegant but there are already bugs in the
    playlist handling, I'll try to polish it once the playlist is fixed.
