[ANN] VideoLAN Server 0.4.0

[Christophe Massiot]

The VideoLAN team is thrilled to announce version 0.4.0 of the VideoLAN
Server. This release brings major new features, including :

* Language descriptors for audio and subpicture streams,
* IPv6 multicast support,
* Many portability fixes, in particular it now works under *BSD and
Mac OS X,
* Dynamic adding of channels and programs,
* Save/restore configuration files,
* RTP output support,
* Daemon mode with syslog logging,
* Start-up script execution,
* WinTV DVB-S support,
* Embedded A/52, DVD SPU and LPCM elementary streams now have a 
different stream type, to avoid a collision with streams coming from 
the American television which used to same numbers differently.

Please note that VLS 0.4.0 requires VLC (VideoLAN Client) version 
0.4.5 or later.
