-Banshee 2.2.0 - 2011-09-21
+Banshee 2.3.1 - 2011-11-02
 ===============================================================================
 
-    Banshee 2.2 is the culmination of six months' work by 35 developers, 38
-    translators and dozens of bug reporters and testers. It is a stable release,
-    the successor to Banshee 2.0.
+    Banshee 2.3.1 is the first release in the 2.3 development series leading up
+    to 2.4, scheduled for March 2012.
 
     New Features:
 
-      * eMusic Store
+      * DVD playback support
 
-            Browse, search, preview, buy, and download music straight into
-            your Banshee library from the eMusic online store.
-
-      * New custom support for the Barnes & Noble Nook
-
-            Transfer music between your library and your Nook device, it just
-            works !
-
-      * Support default internet radio stations
-            
-            At first start, XSPF playlists in $datadir/banshee/stations/ are
-            imported automatically. We don't provide default radio stations
-            ourselves but this allows distros or other third parties to do so.
+            You can now watch your DVDs with Banshee. You can navigate in the
+            DVD's using the mouse or keyboard.
 
     Enhancements:
 
-      * Add "Stop when finished" option in the notification popup menu
-      * Hide labels in the source pane when the group is empty
-      * New Devices Supported:
-        - Motorola Atrix
-        - Notion Ink Adam
-        - Samsung Galaxy Ace
-        - Samsung Galaxy S2
-        - Xperia X12
-      * Add "Smiley Face Curve" default equalizer
-      * ArtworkManager: add --fetch-artwork argument
-      * MiniMode: Reduce height of window
-      * Support .spc files
-      * Set UserAgent when doing MusicBrainz queries
-      * Get info from the database or the file when opening a URI
-      * Remove keyboard shortcut for toggling scrobbling
-      * Cache the ArtworkID in the database for faster startup
-      * Various enhancements to our experimental GStreamer# backend, bringing it
-        close to feature parity with our current C backend. It is still not
-        built by default and not recommended for daily use, but testing is welcome.
