+Avahi 0.6.5
+===========
+
+This release fixes some bugs and adds a new API function.
+ 
+ * avahi-browse: properly show services that are removed from the 
+   network
+ * fix build on bi-arch platforms and on GNU/kFreeBSD
+ * add new API function avahi_nss_support() and DBUS function
+   IsNSSSupportAvailable() which may be used to detect whether
+   libc's gethostbyname() supports mDNS domain names.
+ * patch avahi-bookmarks to make use of
+   IsNSSSupportAvailable(). avahi-bookmarks will now generate links
+   with real hostnames instead of numeric IP addresses if mDNS support
+   is detected for gethostbyname().
+ * add init script for Mandriva Linux
+ * speed up avahi_client_free()
+ * man page updates
+ * install missing header thread-watch.h
+ * fix avahi-bookmarks to work with certain twisted versions
+
+This release is backwards compatible with Avahi 0.6, 0.6.1, 0.6.2,
+0.6.3 and 0.6.4.
+
+Avahi 0.6.4
+===========
+
+This is a bugfix release and adds a new event loop implementation to
+avahi-common's public interface.
+ 
+ * avahi-common: add new AvahiThreadedPool event loop implementation
+ * avahi-sharp: compatibility with newer mono versions
+ * avahi-publish-service: don't ignore the port number specified
+ * avahi-sharp: correct some flags definitions
+
+This release is backwards compatible with Avahi 0.6, 0.6.1, 0.6.2 and
+0.6.3.
+
+A quick introduction how to use the new AvahiThreadedPool interface is
+available in our Wiki:
+
+          http://avahi.org/wiki/RunningAvahiClientAsThread
+
+Avahi 0.6.3
+===========
+
+This is a bugfix release. Everyone should update ASAP!
+
+ * avahi-sharp: make sure to append a trailing NUL byte to all C strings
+ * avahi-core: fix a double free() which occurs when wide area lookups timeout
+
+This release is fully compatible with Avahi 0.6, 0.6.1 and 0.6.2.
+
+Avahi 0.6.2
+===========
+
+This is mostly a bugfix release.
+
+ * Compatibility with DBUS 0.60 (Full compatibility with DBUS 0.3x and 
+   0.5 is retained)
+ * Fix introspection for some auxiliary DBUS objects
+ * Miscellaneous documentation updates
+ * Improve Autoconf support for detecting PTHREADS library
+ * Fix avahi-publish --help
+ * Workaround a DBUS limitation which might cause Avahi to die when a
+   user sends an empty TXT entry over DBUS
+ * Increase number of resolver/browser objects a DBUS client may create
+ * Remove fprintf() call in avahi_client_new()
+ * Other minor fixes
+
+This release is both up and downwards compatible with Avahi 0.6 and 0.6.1.
+
+Avahi now has its own Domain (http://avahi.org) and a new Website!
+
+And, most importantly, we now have a Logo:
+      http://avahi.org/chrome/site/avahi-trac.png
+
+Avahi 0.6.1
+===========
+        
+This is mostly a bugfix release.
+
+ * Fix a segfault when shutting down the daemon. Please note that this
+   issue was not security sensitive in any way but had the ugly side
+   effect that the daemon's PID file was not removed properly.
+ * Added init scripts for ArchLinux and FreeBSD
+ * Add DBUS API versioning through the new method GetAPIVersion()
+ * Build the HOWL compatibility library as "libhowl.so", instead of
+   "libavahi-compat-howl.so". This will help distributors to ensure
+   full API/ABI compatibility with HOWL out-of-the-box.
+ * Same for the Bonjour compatibility library
+ * Other fixes
+
+We encourage Linux users to update to libdaemon 0.10 since logging
+does not work from a chroot() environment with older versions.
+
+This release is fully API and ABI compatible with Avahi 0.6. This is
+true for both the C libraries and the DBUS interface.
+
+Packagers should read the new documentation file doc/COMPAT-LAYERS
+which contains some information about maintaining full build system
+compatibility in addition to ABI/API compatibility.
