ALSA Version 0.9.7

ALSA Version 0.9.7

[Tom Watson]

I understand that it has been released.  Great news.
A couple of things:
1)  Could it be announced here on the list (alsa-devel).  A one-liner
would be nice.  I looked in the archive and only found references to
"non-compiles" indicating a new version.  I went to the ALSA site, and
a new version had appeared.

2)  Even nicer:  How about a bunch of notes that highlight the changes
since the last.  These could be posted on the alsa-project web site and
be helpful to all.  Hopefully we won't need the entire CVS diff, but a
summary would be nice.

Thanks!!  ALSA is the best.  I'll get the latest, and go from there.

IMHO something like the ksync output would be a good start (see
<http://groups.google.com/groups?selm=zLQG.7XK.9%40gated-at.bofh.it>).

I agree. Many times I have been longing for a changelog. It would be best
if it was on alsa web page, so it wouldn't be neccessary to download the
whole package just to see the changelog (but of course it should be also
in the package)

Yesterday I downloaded 0.9.7 just to see if there was any changelog, but
didn't find it. Of course I might install it someday but since I don't
know the benefits of the new version I'll postpone the installation.

cvs2cl script (http://www.red-bean.com/cvs2cl/) is also useful for
such a purpose.

i'll post the generated changelogs.  it's not quite nice but far
better than nothing :)
