[pulseaudio-discuss] [ANNOUNCE] PulseAudio 0.9.23

[Colin Guthrie]

Hi,

http://freedesktop.org/software/pulseaudio/releases/pulseaudio-0.9.23.tar.gz

MD5:  7391205a337d1e04a9ff38025f684034
SHA1: 361f7d89606e8423aad19691bb27f6552e0b679e


Following on from the previous release a little over six months ago, I'm
very happy to announce the next (and likely last) instalment in the
0.9.x series.


As some of you know, Lennart is currently primarily focused on systemd
stuff (which is pretty awesome, but it's not PulseAudio!) so I've been
delegated the job of dong the donkey work of the release, even if
Lennart is still ACKing the changes overall.

After our v1.0 is out, I shall push out releases much more quickly (at
least that is the plan!), often without Lennart's direct involvement
(even tho' I would still like him to give his approval for larger
changes, I'm more than capable of making appropriate judgement calls).

As before, the 0.9.23 release is primarily a bugfix release. It also
includes a preview of module-echo-cancel. Originally this was intended
to gather feedback on it's progress rather than a recommendation for
general use. As time has slipped somewhat on the release, numerous
improvements have subsequently been made in the master branch, so we do
not recommend using it in 0.9.23 to any great extent - feel free to have
a play tho' :)
