Release Notes: Massive code improvement and reorganization were done. Previous 32-bit limits to filesize and timer were fixed, using a dynamic type of at least 64 bits. A new error reporting and logging system with more verbosity is used. Several new features, configuration options, and bugfixes were added.
Release Notes: A new feature was added: IP ToS marking, which is a provision that makes Level-7 QoS for HTTP possible.
Release Notes: A feature was added against "image bomb" DoS attacks. New options were added for content substitution and URL blocking. Support for "ICY" type shoutcasts was added. A bug that caused wrong colors in certain situations while compressing to jp2 was fixed. A bug that caused crashes in very specific situations while compressing to jp2 was fixed. ModifySuffixes provisions were made obsolete. Flex is no longer required for building from sources. Test programs were obsoleted and removed. Miscellaneous code cleanup was done.
Release Notes: This release adds outgoing HTTP port restriction support. It fixes a bug that caused some pictures to not be recompressed to jp2k. It adds a Lanczos component resampler to jp2k.

It includes support for JP2 per-channel resolution and sampling rate, support for incoming JP2 images, and a "tunnel mode" for clients which do not support JP2. Compression level is now specified in percentage quality (just like JPEG) instead of compression rate. It also fixes a couple of JP2-related quirks present in previous versions.
Release Notes: x86_64 compatibility problems were fixed. A new configuration parser was added. Stream-to-stream gzip compression was added. The access log now reports the compressed size of compress-and-stream data. Limited support for partial HTTP data download was added. A workaround was added for a MSIE bug.
