Happy birthday, MAME!

> 0.145
> -------
> Happy 15th Anniversary! Over its 15 years of existence since MAME
> 0.01 was released for MS-DOS with an initial library of 5 sets, MAME
> has grown exponentially to the point that no one thought we would be,
> boasting 18,650 different sets and operable on more OS platforms than
> thought possible. While video-based arcade games were the original
> targets for MAME, the scope of the project has grown to include
> documentation of virtually all coin-operated amusement devices
> including gambling (video/slots), coin droppers, pinball machines and
> more. Through the efforts of the literally thousands of developers,
> players and others who have provided assistance and feedback over the
> project's history, we would like to thank all of them that made this
> possible!
