If you're been naughty this year, your chance to make it up for Christmas is to dutily test PulseAudio RC2 and report bugs (or successes!) accordingly.

If you've been nice this year, better not ruin it all by skipping your testing of PulseAudio RC2!

And if you don't celebrate Christmas at all, you could just spend your time testing PulseAudio RC2 instead...

Anyhow, compared to RC1, we have these fixes/changes:
 * Build system fixes for Debian/FreeBSD and mingw32
 * Some translation updates
 * Fixed A2DP profile not restored correctly
 * Configure fixes for bluez 5 native headset backend
 * Noise in the beginning of a recording (with srbchannel) fixed
 * Fixed a few memory safety issues
* Added warnings for two unstable modules (module-equalizer-sink and module-dbus-protocol) * Enabled autospawn even when systemd socket activation is built in (see below)

Notes:

* Using the new systemd socket activation for PulseAudio will cause PulseAudio to not have any connection with D-Bus, breaking device reservation protocol, module-jackdbus-detect and module-dbus-protocol. Therefore, autospawn is now still enabled by default even if you build with systemd daemon headers. To enable systemd activation, an end user or packager would now have to do two steps:
   - disable autospawn in /etc/pulse/client.conf
- enable socket activation with "systemctl --global enable pulseaudio.socket"

* extra-hdmi.conf, which was present in 5.0 and a few versions before that, has been merged with default.conf. The udev rule has been updated accordingly, but udev rules are typically only read at boot time, so in some cases your sound card might not to be detected. We suggest you do one of the following to fix this transitional problem:
   - Reboot your computer, or
   - Run "udevadm reload-rules" and then "udevadm trigger" (as root), or
   - Create a symlink from extra-hdmi.conf to default.conf.

Thanks to all contributors for making PulseAudio better!
