+    Banshee 1.5.7 (1.6 RC3) is a release for testing MeeGo integration.
 
+    Banshee is a MeeGo-compatible media player, and the isolated extension
+    that provides this integration saw a huge amount of change shortly
+    after the 1.5.6 release. The 1.5.7 release was made primarily to reduce
+    the size and complexity of any patches that may be necessary for the
+    MeeGo integration extension.
+
+    No non-MeeGo related bug fixes or features were added since 1.5.6, as
+    such, distributions are encouraged /not/ to package this release since it
+    will be a waste of time :-)
