*****************************************************************************
*** 0.5.1 ***
+- NEW: Priority enqueing for messages can be optionally enabled by specifying
+ the P_MSGBYPRIO option when creating a server thread.
+ This change allows the implementation of a priority ceiling protocol into
+ message servers threads. Threads serving messages by priority and threads
+ serving messages in FIFO orded can exist at the same time in the system.
+ This feature can be enabled or disabled by removing the option
+ CH_USE_MESSAGES_PRIORITY into the chconf.h file.
+ Note: This option brings a small overhead when sending a message regardless
+ if in FIFO or priority order, if you dont need priority ordering for your
+ messages it is better disable the feature in chconf.h. It also saves some
+ space.
