Hello folks, We're back, with another exciting episode of PulseAudio Releases! There's just a minor OS X fix since 3.99.2, and a NEWS file to make the tarballs more user-friendly. From 3.0, notable changes include: * Better handling of low latency requests * Optimisations while mixing (generic, ARM NEON) * Default resampler is now speex-float-1 (lower CPU usage) * Major Bluetooth refactoring for better reliability and easier maintenance * Fixes for graceful hand-off to/from JACK * New module to apply ducking based on stream roles * Echo canceller infrastructure fixes * Bash and zsh completion for command line tools * Solaris and OS X fixes * Lots of other enhancements, bug fixes, and documenation and i18n updates Tanu's written a much more detailed and excellent summary of the changes at: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Notes/4.0 Tarball, as usual, is at: http://freedesktop.org/software/pulseaudio/releases/pulseaudio-4.0.tar.xz MD5: 591f211db2790a7e4d222f2dc6858db3 SHA1: 9f0769dcb25318ba3faaa453fd2ed0c509fa9c5c We continue to see a steady influx of patches from old and new contributors, and big thanks go out to all of you! Special shout-out to Mikel Astiz for his patient work on the Bluetooth modules. Shortlog follows as usual, but the detailed change log linked above is even better!
