On behalf of the entire Rivendell development team, I'm pleased to announce 
the release of Rivendell v1.5.1.  Rivendell is a full-featured radio 
automation system targeted for use in professional broadcast environments. It 
is available under the GNU General Public License.  Changes in this release 
include (from the NEWS file):

Changes:
  New Translation.  A German-language (DE) translation has been added.

  ALSA Configuration Tool.  An RDAlsaConfig application has been added that
  allows ALSA device configuration to be done completely by means of a GUI
  interface.

  Removed the requirement for sox(1).

  New Switcher Driver.  Added a driver for the BroadcastTools SS4.4 switcher.

  New Report.  Added an AsPlayed report for the RadioTraffic traffic system.

  Bugfixes.  See the ChangeLog for details.

Database Update:
   This version of Rivendell uses database schema version 179, and will
   automatically upgrade any earlier versions.  To see the current schema
   version prior to upgrade, see RDAdmin->SystemInfo.

   As always, be sure to run RDAdmin immediately after upgrading to allow 
   any necessary changes to the database schema to be applied.
