* Optimized/coupled surround support for 5.1 encoding at 44.1/48kHz
* Added encoder control call to disable channel coupling
* Corrected an overflow bug in very low-bitrate encoding on 32 bit
machines that caused inflated bitrates
* Numerous API hardening, leak and build fixes
* Correct bug in 22kHz compand setup that could cause a crash
* Correct bug in 16kHz codebooks that could cause unstable pure
tones at high bitrates
* define VENDOR and ENCODER strings
* fix regression from CVE-2008-1420; 1.0b1 files work again
* mark all tables as constant to reduce memory occupation
* additional decoder hardening against malicious streams
* substantially reduce amount of seeking performed by Vorbisfile
* Multichannel decode bugfix
* Improved robustness with corrupt streams.
* New ov_read_filter() vorbisfile call allows filtering decoded
audio as floats before converting to integer samples.
* Fix an encoder bug with multichannel streams.
* Bare bones self test under 'make check'.
* Fix a problem encoding some streams between 14 and 28 kHz.
* Fix a numerical instability in the edge extrapolation filter.
* Specification correction.
GNOME 2.20 release notes can be found at
http://www.gnome.org/start/2.20/notes/en/ . Beyond that, this update
includes the new GIMP 2.4 (courtesy of ahze).
The GNOME 2.20 update also includes a huge change in the FreeBSD GNOME
hierarchy. We are now using the more standard DATADIR of ${PREFIX}/share
rather than ${PREFIX}/share/gnome. The result is that fewer patches and
hacks are needed to port GNOME components to FreeBSD. This will mean some
user changes may be required, so be sure to read /usr/ports/UPDATING for
more details.
This release and the things we accomplished in it would not have been
possible without mezz's crazy idea to collapse DATADIR, and his persistence
to make it happen successfully. Ahze and pav also deserve thanks for
their work on porting modules and testing the whole ball of wax on
pointyhat (respectively).
The FreeBSD GNOME team would also like to thank our various testers and
contributors:
