+D-BUS 0.21
+===
+
+- implement "auto activation" flag on messages, so the destination
+ service can be launched automatically
+- fix a bug in custom type marshaling
+- optimize case where multiple apps activate the same service
+ (avoid "thundering herd")
+- add dynamic service file discovery/reloading
+- fix a busy loop when blocking for a reply
+- fix a 64-bit crash involving varargs
+- fix a bus crash when processing an AcquireService
+- allow appending TYPE_BYTE via append_args_valist
+- fix dicts-inside-dicts
+- enhancements to Python and Qt bindings
+
+D-BUS 0.20
+===
+
+This release lands some very large API changes and numerous bugfixes.
+The list of changes is too large to fully document here; please refer
+to the documentation, and message-bus-list archives.
+
+D-BUS 0.13
+===
+
+This is probably the last release before landing the large API changes
+on the "dbus-object-names" branch.
+
+- fix system bus to always use filesystem socket; anyone
+ can create any abstract socket, which isn't secure
+ since if you can crash the system bus you'd be able
+ to replace it.
+- add DTD for configuration file
+- improve specification a bit
+
+D-BUS 0.12
+===
+
+- fix "service messagebus status" on Red Hat
+- fix demarshaling of DBUS_TYPE_NAMED
+- fix "eval `dbus-launch --exit-with-session`" to exit properly
+- fix build without --prefix
+- useless fooling with Mono bindings
+- useless fooling with gcj bindings
+- fix srcdir != builddir
+- fix various compiler warnings and other issues
+- add get/set data to DBusMessage
+- fix headers for C++
+- OS X build fixes
+- abstract domain sockets support (Linux only)
+- add dbus-cleanup-sockets utility for people
+ not using linux
+- be consistent about defaulting to --session/--system
+ with command line tools
+- merge in policies from included config files
+- fix build on non-x86
+- docs updates
+- lots of other bugfixes
+
+D-BUS 0.11
+===
+
+- add --enable-docs to turn off/on the docbook stuff
+ (doesn't cover doxygen stuff yet)
+- make people define DBUS_API_SUBJECT_TO_CHANGE
+ and read warning in README so they don't
+ expect the API to be frozen already
+- rename .pc files to "dbus-1.pc" instead of
+ "dbus-1.0.pc" etc. - this will require changing
+ pkg-config invocations
+- some docs cleanups
+- add man pages for all executables
+- allow send to/from bus driver in the default system.conf
+- fix user lookup bug
+- implement dbus-launch to launch the session message bus
+- fix some thread deadlocks
+- some performance profiling/optimization
+- add dbus_bus_activate_service() function
+- fix some minor bugs here and there
+- install Red Hat initscript in the right place
+
+D-BUS 0.10
+===
+
+- reversed order of args to dbus_message_new()
+- renamed dbus_message_name_is() and some other
+ functions
+- change DBusWatch to have dbus_watch_handle()
+ similar to dbus_timeout_handle(), drop
+ connection/server-specific handle routines
+- change message serials to be unsigned
+- implemented <allow>/<deny>/<limit> features for
+ config file; system bus now has a deny-all policy
+ by default.
+- system.conf has <includedir>system.d</includedir>
+ so packages can install additions to the default
+ policy to <allow> the messages they need. e.g.
+ CUPS might install a cups.conf - see
+ test/data/valid-config-files/system.d/test.conf
+ for an example.
+- add timeouts for authentication, activation
+- add glib-style "checks" on public API, enable
+ those by default, disable assertions by default
+- add GMainContext argument to GLib setup functions,
+ can be NULL for default context. Needed for threads.
+- add 64-bit integer type
+- validate type of standard message header fields
+- consider messages in the org.freedesktop.Local
+ namespace to be invalid (to avoid fake disconnect
+ messages for example)
+- fix assorted memory leaks and other bugs in
+ the SHA-1 auth mechanism
+- cache user database information (groups user is
+ in, etc.) helps a lot with NIS
+- always store uid_t, pid_t, gid_t in "ulong"
+ rather than "int"
+- implement config file settings for which
+ users can connect
+- SHA-1 unit test
+- dbus-send, dbus-monitor command line utilities
+- fixed lots of misc crashes and other bugs
+
+D-BUS 0.9
+===
+
+- implemented a test case for service activation,
+ and fixed many bugs exposed by that
+- implemented recursive argument marshaling/demarshaling
+ for messages, allowing multidimensional arrays

+ main loop by adding a callback on change of
+ dispatch status
