     - fixed di-harmonic triangle LFO implementation (this LFO implementation
       is only used by very few systems, most pick the int math
       implementation, which is usually faster)
+    - fixes for audio drivers with varying buffer sizes
+    - experimental support for running LinuxSampler as a DSSI, LV2 and
+      VST plugin
+    - notification events for stream/voice count statistics are now sent
+      only when there are actual changes
+    - added memory ordering constraints to improve stability on
+      multi-core and multi-cpu systems
+    - maximum voices and disk streams can now be altered at runtime
 
   * audio driver:

     - bugfix: the SAMPLERATE parameter of some drivers (e.g. JACK)
       reflected the wrong value
     - fixed a memory management bug in ASIO driver
+    - Makefile fix: JACK_CFLAGS wasn't used
+    - JACK: use jack_client_open instead of the deprecated
+      jack_client_new
 
   * MIDI driver:
     - added JACK MIDI driver
+    - dispatch bank select as ordinary CC as well, the user might seriously
+      want to (mis)use it for some purpose ("fixed" in all current MIDI
+      input drivers: ALSA, CoreMIDI, JACK, MidiShare, MME)
 
   * instruments database:
     - avoid time consuming samples scanning when adding instruments
       to the instruments database
+    - added support for handling lost files in the instruments database
+    - Implemented option for adding instruments in separate directories
+      in the instruments database

+    - bugfix: notes triggered at position 0 in the audio buffer were
+      sometimes wrongly killed in the same buffer, causing no sound to
+      be played
+    - added support for chromatic / drumkit mode Roland GS Sysex message
+      which is usally used to switch a part between chromatic sounds and
