 Audacious 1.5.0 (2008-03-13)
+============================
+This is the last branch of Audacious that will support in Winamp2 skins
+in core. We are working on a new default UI for Audacious2 which provides
+a more metadata rich environment (while still be lightweight and fast).
+However, it is planned to implement support for Winamp2 skins as a plugin in
+the next version. No promises, though.
 
-Enhancements:
+It has been fun being seen as "rescuing XMMS" by the community; but this
+has never been our goal. Our goal has always been to develop the best
+possible player on Linux. This means that we are audiophiles, and we want
+our audio to sound as nice as possible. This has been our primary goal;
+not maintaining a Winamp2 skinned player. When we determined that the current
+UI implementation was getting in our way, we decided to rip it out. As such,
+the future of Winamp2 skins in Audacious is undefined, but they will probably
+be supported via a plugin.
