+0.5.1 (2018-04-12)
+------------------
+
+Note: This release does NOT change the libsigrokdecode public C API in
+incompatible ways. This means existing frontends should not require any
+changes. However, individual PDs and their output changed, which may

+
+0.5.0 (2017-06-12)
+------------------
+
+Note: This release DOES change the libsigrokdecode public C API. This
+means it is NOT backwards-compatible and frontends will need updates.
+
+ * New supported protocol decoders:
+ - ade77xx Poly phase multifunction energy metering IC protocol
+ - adf435x Wideband synthesizer with integrated VCO
+ - aud Renesas/Hitachi Advanced User Debugger (AUD) protocol

+ * Add support for the new query-based PD v3 decoder API.
+ - Decoders using PD v3 API can benefit from both readability improvements
+ as well as performance improvements. Up to 10x speedup has been measured
+ in some situations (depends a lot on the decoder, the amount of data,
+ the amount of edges in the signals, and the amount of oversampling).
+ - The majority of all decoders have been converted to PD API v3.
+ - For the time being, both APIs (2 and 3) will remain supported until all
+ decoders have been converted to API version 3. Then, support for API
+ version 2 will be dropped.
+ * Add support for specifying the (assumed) initial pin states before the
+ first sample that is being decoded. This can be set to 0/low, 1/high, or
+ to "use the same value as in the first sample".

+ - Handle Channel Pressure / Aftertouch (message 0xDn).
+ - Handle Channel Mode (message 0xBn mm where mm is 120 through 127).
+ - Handle System Common messages (message 0xF1 through 0xF6), including
+ full time code decoding.
+ - SysEx decoding now decodes the 1-3 byte manufacturer field, payload
+ is now displayed as hex.
+ - 'undefined' fields now display the value (e.g. 'undefined 0xf4').
+ - Add 'MSB' and 'LSB' to many control_functions entries.
+ - Fix "trapped in state X" bug with handle_channel_msg_generic(),
+ though this might be dead code.
+ - Fix bug in sysex_manufacturer_ids; 1-byte manufacturers were not
+ tuples due to missing comma.
+ - Fix bug in SysEx state machine; 0xF7 now sent to handle_sysex_msg().
+ - Annotations: Provide multiple string versions (shorter and longer ones).
+ - chromatic_notes in list.py was off by 1 octave.
+ - Handle "Running Status" where status byte can be omitted.
+ - SysEx message can be terminated by status byte, not just EOX.
+ - Handle SysReal messages that interrupt in-progress message transmission.
+ - Identify and print garbage / truncated data.
+ - Add 2 new annotations: text-sysreal-verbose and text-error.

+ - Move some duplicated code snippets/lists to decoders/common.
+ * Rename the maxim_ds28ea00 decoder to ds28ea00.
