+<h2>Changes up to version 5.2</h2>
+
+<div class=section>
+
+ <h3>PulseAudio Support</h3>
+
+ <div class=section>
+
+ <p>PulseAudio is now supported, if the support library is available at
+ build time. It is the default for client applications, reflecting its
+ widespread use in desktop environments.</p>
+
+ <p>Volume setting is not currently supported when PulseAudio is in
+ use.</p>
+
+ </div>
+
+ <h3>Changes To RTP Support</h3>
+
+ <div class=section>
+
+ <p>Disobedience now has a menu to select the network playback API.</p>
+
+ <p><code>disorder-playrtp</code> now selects playback API using
+ a <code>--api</code> option. The old API-selection options remain
+ available but are deprecated and will be removed in the future.</p>
+
+ <p>RTP playback can now transmit to multiple unicast destinations, added
+ and removed on demand. This is controlled by the new <code>rtp_mode</code>
+ option. The motivating use case is a bridged network with high- and
+ low-capacity components. However it is may also be useful in a routed
+ network without multicast routing support.</p>

+
+ <div class=section>
+
+ <h3>Bug fixes</h3>
+
+ <div class=section>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li><code>player</code> and <code>tracklength</code> can now be used
+ without arguments to clear the lists, as per the documentation.</li>
+
+ <li>Tracks without a player are forgotten upon rescan.</li>
+
+ <li>The speaker process avoids splitting frames.</li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <p>Thanks to Mark Wooding and Joe Birr-Pixton.</p>

<h2>Changes up to version 5.1</h2>
<div class=section>
</div>
+ <h3>Disobedience</h3>
+
+ <div class=section>
+
+ <p>You can now edit the <tt>required-tags</tt> and <tt>prohibited-tags</tt>
+ global preferences in Disobedience
+ (<a href="http://code.google.com/p/disorder/issues/detail?id=29">issue
+ #29</a>).</p>
+
+ <p>The “Manage users” option is now more reliably greyed out if
+ it will not work. This depends on a server change too, so it may still be
+ wrong if a new Disobedience is used against an old server.</p>
+
+ <p>A <tt>.desktop</tt> file is now shipped, making Disobedience visible as
+ an application in freedesktop.org-compliant systems.</p>
+
+ </div>
+
+ <h3>Backups</h3>
+
+ <div class=section>
+
+ <p>The Debian package now includes a cronjob that backs up the database
+ daily. See <tt>/etc/cron.d/disorder</tt>. You can put settings
+ in <tt>/etc/default/disorder</tt> to turn this off or to control how long
+ the backups are kept for.</p>
+
+ <p>The <tt>disorder-dump -r</tt> option was broken.</p>
+
+ <p><tt>disorder-dump</tt> now gets permissions right automatically (<a
+ href="http://code.google.com/p/disorder/issues/detail?id=56">issue
+ #56</a>).</p>
+
+ </div>
+
<h3>General</h3>
<div class=section>
href="http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode6.0.0/">Unicode
6.0.0</a>.</p>
+ <p>Client programs no longer depend on libdb.</p>
+
+ <p>The following have been removed:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+
+ <li>The <tt>allow</tt>, <tt>gap</tt>, <tt>lock</tt>, <tt>prefsync</tt>,
+ <tt>restrict</tt>, <tt>trust</tt> configuration commands. If they still
+ appear in your configuration file then the server will not start.</li>
+
+ <li>The <tt>columns</tt> web interface option. It will generate an
+ message in your error log but otherwise be ignored.</li>
+
+ <li>The <tt>--wait-for-device</tt> player option. If it still appears in
+ any player commands, they will not work.</li>
+
+ <li>Support for automatically importing pre-3.0 users.</li>
+
+ </ul>
+
+ <p>Various minor bug fixes.</p>
