     1.4 -Release notes for lxdream 0.9 "Shiny"
     1.5 +Release notes for lxdream 0.9.1 "Turtle"
     1.6  ===================================================
     1.7  
     1.8 -Lxdream 0.9 is considerably more stable and accurate than the 0.8 series
     1.9 -(thanks more to a huge number of bugfixes than anything else), and the 
    1.10 -majority of software can be expected to "just work" with minimal problems. 
    1.11 +Lxdream 0.9.1 is mostly a performance release (core emulation is a good
    1.12 +33-50% faster, although rendering performance is still bad), with a few new
    1.13 +features like VMU and LIRC support. As for 0.9, the majority of software can
    1.14 +be expected to "just work" with minimal problems.
    1.15  
    1.16  Nevertheless this should still be considered an alpha release, with many 
    1.17  unimplemented features remaining. You're unlikely to see 'perfect' emulation,
    1.18  and we're nowhere near being bug-compatible (in other words, don't expect your
    1.19  code to work on the real hardware just because it runs correctly in lxdream).
