Dear SoX package maintainers


I'm happy to annouce the first minor (bugfix + new feature) release of 
sox_ng,

the hard fork of sox.sf.net that I was forced to make to be able to 
sanitize it and

incorporate work done by many devs since its last release 14.4.2 nine 
years ago.


Apart from making six-monthly releases in each of the micro and minor 
series,

it fixes all known CVEs in sox-14.4.2 (the distros that packaged 
sox.sf.net tip 42b355

fail some CVEs that 14,4,2 passes!), includes patches for other bugs and 
this one has

some of the work done to improve/extend SoX over the last nine years.


For a list of the changes since 14.4.2 see

https://codeberg.org/sox_ng/sox_ng/releases


Generic notes for distro packagers of SoX are after the table

in https://codeberg.org/sox_ng/sox_ng/wiki/Distros

and for notes about your specific distro, including the

correspondence between your patches to 14.4.2 and

the sox_ng issues/patches that address them,

follow your distro's link in the table.
