+### [v0.7](https://github.com/kaoskorobase/hsndfile/tree/v0.7.1)
+
+* Read and write signed instead of unsigned integer samples and rename `sf_readf_wordXX` and `sf_writef_wordXX` to `sf_readf_intXX` and `sf_writef_intXX`, respectively
+* Add new supported header and sample formats
+
+### v0.6
+
+* Don't export `Control.Exception.catch` and `Prelude` from `Sound.File.Sndfile`
+
+### v0.5
+
+* Remove lazy read functions `hGetContentChunks` and `readFileChunks` from library interface. Those functions were implemented incorrectly.
+
+### v0.4
+
+* Simplified Buffer API: A single type class, **Buffer**, is provided for **ForeignPtr** based I/O. Instances are provided in separate packages, e.g. [hsndfile-vector](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/hsndfile-vector).
+
+### v0.3.2
+
+* **hsndfile** has been adapted to compile with GHC 6.10. The only
+  visible change is in exception handling:
+    * `Sound.File.Sndfile.Exception.Exception` is now an instance of
+      `Control.Exception.Exception`
+    * The new generalized functions from `Control.Exception.Exception` are
+      used for throwing and handling exceptions
+
+### v0.2.0
+
+* Fix exception throwing Exceptions detected in library code are
+  now actually raised. Exception has been factored into
+  Sound.File.Sndfile.Exception and constructors were added according to the
+  public libsndfile error codes.
+* Fix reading/writing of frames hGetFrames and hPutFrames were
+  using the sample-based library functions. These have been factored into
+  Sound.File.Sndfile.Buffer and the correct functions are being used for the
+  frame-based I/O functions.

For instance, it is possible to open a 16 bit PCM encoded WAV file and read the data in floating point format.

 --
 -- When converting between integer data and floating point data, the following rules apply: The default behaviour when reading floating point data from a file with integer data is normalisation. Regardless of whether data in the file is 8, 16, 24 or 32 bit wide, the data will be read as floating point data in the range [-1.0, 1.0]. Similarly, data in the range [-1.0, 1.0] will be written to an integer PCM file so that a data value of 1.0 will be the largest allowable integer for the given bit width. This normalisation can be turned on or off using the command interface (/implementation missing in Haskell/).
