"Dave, this conversation can serve no purpose anymore. Goodbye."

Hello world,

As promised, I did a new hal release to collect the rather large
number of fixes that hit trunk recently. This will probably be the
last hal release that will happen from the Linux side.

Requirements for HAL 0.5.14 did not change since the last release.

Thanks to all contributors!
