Hello everybody,


The maintenance versions 1.3.4, 1.4.2, and 1.5.1 of the ROHC library
were just released!


== 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 [1] as Opensource under the license GNU GPL
version 2 or later.

See http://rohc-lib.org/ for more details.


== 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, 1.4.x, or 1.5.x releases. See the
release notes and the changelogs [3] [4] [5] for the complete list.
