+-------------------------------------------
+0.6.2 (to be accounced) "elastic diversity"
+-------------------------------------------
+
+- para_gui no longer waits up to one second to update the screen when
+ the geometry of the terminal changes.
+- Minor documentation improvements.
+- Improvements to the crypto subsystem.
+- The server subcommand "task" has been deprecated. It still works,
+ but prints nothing. It will be removed in the next major release.
+- Server log output is now serialized, avoiding issues with partial
+ lines.
+- It is now possible to switch to a different afs database by changing
+ the server configuration and sending SIGHUP to the server process.
++- New server options: --listen--address, --http-listen-address and
++ --dccp-listen-address. These options restrict the set of listening
++ addresses of the TCP and DCCP sockets of the server process.
