General
* Multithreaded encoding is now possible in libFLAC and through
the flac command line tool.
* The GFDL license file is updated to version 1.3.
* The markdown tool documentation is now also converted to HTML,
for bundling with systems that do not read manpages.
* Decoding of chained Ogg FLAC files is now possible.
* Is is now possible in libFLAC, libFLAC++ and metaflac to write
to a new file when changing metadata, instead of needing to
verwrite an existing file.
flac
* Testing mode (flac -t) now parses all metadata blocks and warns
the user when ID3v1 metadata is detected.
* A warning is displayed when frame numbers do not increase
correctly throughout a file.
* The explain option (-H or --explain) is now removed, use the
manpage or html tool documentation instead.
* Built-in help and tool documentation are improved.
* When re-encoding a FLAC file from an existing FLAC file, a
check is added that the MD5 sums of both files are the same.
libFLAC and libFLAC++
* The library interfaces have been extended.
See the porting guide (part of the API documentation).
* An error is sent when a frame is missing
* The algorithm of the 'loose mid side' option has changed.
Instead of checking every few frames which option is best and
keeping that for the next few frames, a fast heuristic is now
used. This was necessary to enable multithreading
* Most level 0 metadata interface functions now also work with
