+<h3>libOgg 1.4.4: release candidate 1 announced</h3>
+
+
+<p>Xiph.Org is pleased to announce a release candidate of libogg 1.1.4.
+This release candidate will have a trial period of two weeks followed
+by full release.  The only changes between now and the full release
+date will be fixes to any regressions we may have missed in the
+release testing process.  This is intended to be a fully stable
+release and the hope is the 'rc' moniker is a formality.
+
+<p>Changes in the new libogg release include:
+
+<ul>
+<li>Updates to documentation, including new API documentation for API
+additions that had been missed in previous releases.
+
+<li>New iovec write interface.
+
+<li>A new asynchronous error reporting interface; rather than the need to
+check for an error return after every call, and internal or usage
+error will simply mark the working state 'not ready' and the error
+status may be checked at the end of a block.  The libogg calls
+in-between become safe no-ops.
+
+<li>Various build fixes intended to keep the autofoo and Windows build
+mechanisms up to date.
+</ul>
+
+<p>This release is ABI and API compatible with previous incarnations of
+libogg.
+
+<p>Tarballs and zipfiles of the official release can be found in the
+usual place at <a href="http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/ogg/">http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/ogg/</a>.
+
+<p>Happy hacking!

+<h3>libVorbis 1.2.2: release candidate 1 announced</h3>
+
+<p>Xiph.Org is pleased to announce a release candidate of
+libvorbis-1.2.2.  This is primarily a bugfix release to push out
+many fixes, some of which have been in SVN for a long time but
+haven't warranted their own release mainly due to being picked up
+asynchronously by distributions.  Aside from the arcane bugfix
+list in the SVN logs, this release includes a few new bugfixes
+that languished due to lack of any screaming, as well as some
+nice seeking-related performance inprovements to libvorbisfile.
+
+<p>This release has been a long time in the making, and for that
+reason we do not expect any additional changes or fixes prior to
+the release candidate being granted full release status in a week
+or two.  Nevertheless, the possibility of a last minute screwup
+always exists, please test this prerelease and contact us if
+anything is amiss.
+
+<p>Work has already begun on the next two libvorbis releases.  The
+approximate roadmap is: the async error interface just added to
+libogg will be the next change to libvorbis, and will be the
+basis of the 1.2.3 release.  AoTuV merges are scheduled for
+immediately after and will form the basis of 1.3.0.
+
+<p>The 1.2.2 release candidate 1 is available at the usual place,
