On behalf of the entire Rivendell development team, I'm pleased to announce the
availability of Rivendell v2.3.0. Rivendell is a full-featured radio automation system
targeted for use in professional broadcast environments. It is available under the GNU
General Public License.
From the NEWS file:

If upgrading from a v1.x version of Rivendell, be sure to read the
'UPGRADING' file before proceeding for important information.
Changes:
RDCartSlots Module. A new Rivendell module has been added that is
optimized for use in busy live assist environments, along with four
new RMLs ('Load Slot' ['DL'], 'Play Slot' ['DP'],
'Stop Slot' ['DS']
and 'Execute Breakaway' ['DX']) for automating its operation.
RDAirPlay Enhancements. A set of buttons for quickly locating a given
hour has been added to the Full Log widget, enabled by checking the
'Show Hour Selector' box in RDAdmin->ManageHost->RDAirPlay.
JACK Enhancements. It is now possible to specify the command-line
used to start jackd(8) and a list of clients to start when
starting the Rivendell service. See RDAdmin->ManageHosts->JackSettings.
Switcher/GPIO Device Support. Added support for the Sine Systems ACU-1
switcher. See 'SWITCHERS.txt' for details.
Cue Output Assignments. Cue output assignments for all modules
except RDAirPlay have now been consolidated into one setting in
RDAirPlay->ManageHosts.
Multiple bug fixes. See the ChangeLog for details.
Database Update:
This version of Rivendell uses database schema version 213, and will
automatically upgrade any earlier versions. To see the current schema
version prior to upgrade, see RDAdmin->SystemInfo.
As always, be sure to run RDAdmin immediately after upgrading to allow
any necessary changes to the database schema to be applied.
