ROHC library 1.3.3 and 1.4.1 released

 

Hello everybody,

The maintenance versions 1.3.3 and 1.4.1 of the ROHC library were just
released!

Note that the 1.2.x branch reached end of life, the 1.2.3 release was
the last 1.2.x maintenance version of the 1.2.x branch.


== About the ROHC library ==

The ROHC library provides an easy and robust way for applications to
reduce their bandwidth usage on network links with limited capacity or
expensive costs. Headers of network packets are compressed with the
ROHC protocol and algorithms.

The ROHC protocol is very efficient for compressing VoIP streams that
use RTP as transport protocol. ROHC is also suitable for compressing
IP-only (IPv4 or IPv6) flows, UDP flows and many others.

The library is published on Launchpad [1] as Opensource under the
GNU GPL2+ license.

== Release notes & changelogs ==

These versions are maintenance releases with bug fixes only. Some
important bugs were corrected. Some were not fixed to keep
compatibility with previous 1.3.x or 1.4.x releases.

See the release notes and the changelogs [2] [3] for the complete list.
