Major changes in 0.5.2: ======================= This is the first release of the unstable 0.5.x series leading up to 0.6. With this release the API of spice-server is considered stable, but the network protocol and QXL PCI ABI are still unstable. The major changes compared to the 0.4 series are: * New, more efficient network protocol * Support for offscreen surfaces in guest driver * New spice-server API * A marshalling/demarshalling system that isolates the network protocol parsing from the internal types * A PCI parsing and validation layer making it easier to get backwards compatibility, cleaning up the internals ans makes security review easier. * WAN support, including lossy compression using jpeg and zlib compression. * Easier to build. No more dependencies on forked versions of pixman and cairo. Separate module spice-protocol containing headers used when building drivers and qemu.
