    2424Most of the proposals propose changes to the definition of the PortAudio API or to the 
    2525way that PortAudio behaves in specific circumstances, some proposals (such as the style guide)  
    26 are concerned with the way in which we implement PortAudio.

    31 be treated as specifications that will guide implementation. The authors are the various members of the PortAudio  
    32 community and are too numerous to mention here. Please refer to the mailing list archives to see who said what.

    121 The proposals range in complexity from clarifications of existing API functionality, through to renaming API functions for consistency, through to significant feature additions. Due to the interdependency of many of the proposed enhancements, we plan to introduce all API enhancements simultaneously as part of release 19. The CVS repository currently contains a branch named 
    122 portaudio-v19-devel where enhancements are being implemented.

    126 The developer community is in the process of reviewing all proposals. Most proposals are defined in sufficient detail to be implemented, however some completed proposals are dependent on proposals that are still under construction. Of the remaining unfinished proposals, only
