About:
Speex is a patent-free compression format designed especially for speech. It is specialized for voice communications at low bit-rates in the 2-45 kbps range. Possible applications include Voice over IP (VoIP), Internet audio streaming, audio books, and archiving of speech data (e.g. voice mail).

Release focus: Minor feature enhancements

Changes:
The main change with this release is that it includes API additions from the 1.1.x branch (while being backward compatible), so that transition from 1.0.x to 1.1.x can be made easier.
