 Version 3.3d0
 ====
-Internal changes are being made for version 3.3 to avoid using `SIGUSR1` and `pthread_kill` to stop threads; the standard `pthread_cancel` and friends are being used instead. This should lead to more reliable and orderly cancellatioon of sessions and threads. However, it is quite a complex change, so bugs may have been introduced or reactivated. Lots of testing needed.

 **New Features**
 * Add the command `quit` to the MPRIS and the D-Bus interfaces. The main motivation for this is that it makes it easier to search for memory leaks.
