+0.9.9
+ - Overall changes:
+ * Added noVNC HTML5 VNC viewer (http://kanaka.github.com/noVNC/) connect possibility
+ to our http server. Pure JavaScript, no Java plugin required anymore! (But a
+ recent browser...)
+ * Added a GTK+ VNC viewer example.
+
+ - LibVNCServer/LibVNCClient:
+ * Added support to build for Google Android.
+ * Complete IPv6 support in both LibVNCServer and LibVNCClient.
+
+ - LibVNCServer:
+ * Split two event-loop related functions out of the rfbProcessEvents() mechanism.
+ This is required to be able to do proper event loop integration with Qt. Idea was
+ taken from Vino's libvncserver fork.
+ * Added TightPNG (http://wiki.qemu.org/VNC_Tight_PNG) encoding support. Like the
+ original Tight encoding, this still uses JPEG, but ZLIB encoded rects are encoded
+ with PNG here.
+ * Added suport for serving VNC sessions through WebSockets
+ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebSocket), a web technology providing for multiplexing
+ bi-directional, full-duplex communications channels over a single TCP connection.
+ * Support connections from the Mac OS X built-in VNC client to LibVNCServer
+ instances running with no password.
+ * Replaced the Tight encoder with a TurboVNC one which is tremendously faster in most
+ cases, especially with high-color video or 3D workloads.
+ (http://www.virtualgl.org/pmwiki/uploads/About/tighttoturbo.pdf)
+
+ - LibVNCClient:
+ * Added support to only listen for reverse connections on a specific IP address.
+ * Support for using OpenSSL instead of GnuTLS. This could come in handy on embedded
+ devices where only this TLS implementation is available.
+ * Added support to connect to UltraVNC Single Click servers.

0.9.8.2
- Fixed a regression that crept in with the Apple Remote Desktop support.
