3.4   (2003.10.01)
===================
- Confidence measure support
  - New parameter "-cmalpha" as smoothing coef.
  - New command "-outcode C" to output CM in module output
  - Can be disabled by configure option "--disbale-cm"
  - Can use an alternate CM algorithm by configure option "--enable-cm-nbest"
- Class N-gram support
  - Can be disabled by configure option "--disable-class-ngram"
  - Factoring basis changed from N-gram entry to dictionary word
- WAV format recording in "adinrec", "adintool" and "-record" option
- Modified output message
    startup messages,
    engine configuration message in --version and --help,
- Fixes:
    some outputs in module mode,
    bug in only several frame input (realtime-1stpass.c),
    long silence at end of segmented speech
    miscompilation with NetAudio,
    word size check in binary N-gram,
    bug in acoustic computation (gprune_none.c).
    "-version" -> "-setting", "-hipass" -> "-hifreq", "-lopass" -> "-lofreq"

3.3p4 (2003.05.06)
===================
- Fixes for audio input:
  - Fix segfault/hangup with continuous microphone input.
  - Fix client hangup when input speech too long in module mode.
    (now send an buffer overflow message to the client)
  - Fix audio input buffering for very short input (<1000 samples).
  - Fix blocking handling in tcpip adin.
- Some cosmetic changes (jcontrol, LOG_TEN, etc.)

3.3p3 (2003.01.08)
===================
- New inter-word short pause handling:
  - [Julius] New option added for short pause handling.  Specifying
    "-iwspword" adds a short-pause word entry, namely "<UNK> [sp] sp sp",
    to the dictionary.  The entry content to be changed by using "-iwspentry".
  - [multi-path] Supports inter-word context-free short pause handling.
    "-iwsp" option automatically appends a skippable short pause model at
    every word end.  The added model will also be ignored in context
    modeling.  The short pause model to be appended by "-iwsp" can be
    specified by "-spmodel" options.  See documents for details.
- Fixes for audio input:
   - Input delay improved: the initial response to mic input now
     becomes much faster than previous versions (200ms -> 50ms approx.).
   - Would not block when other process is using the audio device, but
     just output error and exit.
   - Update support for libsndfile-1.0.x.
   - Update support for ALSA-0.9.x 
     (to use this, add "--with-mictype=alsa" to configure option.)
 
3.3p2 (2002.11.18)
===================
- [multi-path version] Supports model-skip transition.  From
  this version, you can use "any" type of state transition in HTK
  format acoustic model.
- New feature: "-record dir" records speech inputs sucessively
  into the specified directory with time-stamp file names.
- fix segfault on Solaris with "-input mfcfile".
- fix blocking command input when using module mode and adinnet together.
- modified the output flush timing to make sure the last recognition
  result will be output immediately.

3.3p1 (2002.10.15)
===================
Following bugs are fixed:
- Fixed incorrect default value of language weights for second pass (-lmp2).
- Fixed sometimes read failure of dictionary file (double space enabled).
- Fixed wrong output of "-separatescore" together with monophone model.

3.3 (2002.09.12)
==================
The updates and new features from rev.3.2 is shown below.

- New features added:
        - Server module mode - control Julius (input on/off, grammar switching)
          from other client process via network.
        - Online grammar changing and multi-grammar recognition supported.
- Noise robustness:
        - Spectral subtraction incorporated.
- Support more variety of acoustic models:
        - "multi-path version" is available that allows any transition
           including loop, skip and parallel transition.
- A little improvement of recognition performance by bug fixes
- Other minor extensions (CMN parameter saving, etc.)
- Many bug fixes

English documents are available in
  o online manuals (will be installed by default), and
  o Translated full documentation in PDF format: Julius-3.2-book-e.pdf.
We are sorry that current release contains only documents for old rev.3.2.
We are now working to update it to catch up with the current rev.3.3 version.
