-    * configs/shenzhou/*/Make.defs:  Now uses the new buildroot 4.6.3
-      EABI toolchain.

-      "hidden" c_speed cannot be type const or else static instantiations
-      of termios will be required to initialize it (Mike Smith).

-      the ARMv7-M family contributed by Mike Smith.
-    * lib/strings/lib_vikmemcpy.c:  As an option, the larger but faster
-      implemementation of memcpy from Daniel Vik is now available (this is
-      from http://www.danielvik.com/2010/02/fast-memcpy-in-c.html).

-      version of memset() optimized for speed.  By default, memset() is
-      optimized for size.

-      basic framework for loadable ELF module support.  The initial check-
-      in is non-functional and is simply the framework for ELF support.
-    * include/nuttx/binfmt.h, nxflat.h, elf.h, and symtab.h:  Moved to
-      include/nuttx/binfmt/.
-    * arch/sim/src/up_elf.c and arch/x86/src/common/up_elf.c:  Add
-      for ELF modules.
-    * arch/arm/include/elf.h:  Added ARM ELF header file.
-    * include/elf32.h:  Renamed elf.h to elf32.h.
-    * configs/stm32f4discovery/ostest:  Converted to use the new
-      Kconfig-based configuration system.
-    * configs/stm32f4discovery/elf and configs/stm32f4discovery/scripts/gnu-elf.ld
-      Add a configuration for testing the ARM ELF loader.
-    * binfmt/libelf:  Can't use fstat(). NuttX does not yet support it.  Damn!
-    * binfmt/libelf:  The basic ELF module execution appears fully functional.
-    * configs/shenzhou/src/up_relays.c:  Add support for relays from the
-      Shenzhou board.  Contributed by Darcy Gong.
-    * lib/fixedmath: Moved the old lib/math to lib/fixedmath to make room for
-      the math library from the Rhombus OS
-    * lib/math: Now contains the math library from the Rhombus OS by Nick Johnson
-      (submitted by Darcy Gong).
-    * include/float.h:  Add a first cut at the float.h header file.  This
-      really should be an architecture/toolchain-specific header file.  It
-      is only used if CONFIG_ARCH_FLOAT_H is defined.
-    * lib/math: Files now conform to coding standards.  Separated float,
-      double, and long double versions of code into separate files so that
-      they don't draw in so much un-necessary code when doing a dumb link.
-    * binfmt/libelf:  The ELF loader is working correctly with C++ static
-      constructors and destructors and all.
-    * Documentation/NuttXBinfmt.html:  Add documentionof the binary loader.
-    * configs/sim/ostest:  Converted to use the mconfig configuration tool.
-    * configs/sim/cxxtest:  New test that will be used to verify the uClibc++
-      port (eventually).
-    * include/nuttx/fs/fs.h, lib/stdio/lib_libfread.c, lib_ferror.c,
-      lib_feof.c, and lib_clearerr.c:  Add support for ferror(), feof(),
-      and clearerror().  ferror() support is bogus at the moment (it
-      is equivalent to !feof()); the others should be good.
-    * configs/stm32f4discovery/include/board.h:  Correct timer 2-7
-      base frequency (provided by Freddie Chopin).
-    * include/nuttx/sched.h, sched/atexit.c, and sched/task_deletehook.c:
-      If both atexit() and on_exit() are enabled, then implement atexit()
-      as just a special caseof on_exit().  This assumes that the ABI can
-      handle receipt of more call parameters than the receiving function
-      expects.  That is usually the case if parameters are passed in
-      registers.
-    * libxx/libxx_cxa_atexit():  Implements __cxa_atexit()
-    * configs/stm32f4discovery/cxxtest:  New test that will be used to
-      verify the uClibc++ port (eventually).  The sim platform turned not
-      to be a good platform for testing uClibc++.  The sim example will not
-      run because the simulator will attempt to execute the static
-      constructors before main() starts. BUT... NuttX is not initialized
-      and this results in a crash.  On the STM324Discovery, I will have
-      better control over when the static constructors run.
-    * RGMP 4.0 updated from Qiany Yu.
-    * configs/*/Make.defs and configs/*/ld.script:  Massive clean-up
-      and standardization of linker scripts from Freddie Chopin.
-    * net/netdev_ioctl.c:  Add interface state flags and ioctl calls
-      to bring network interfaces up and down (from Darcy Gong).
-    * config/stm32f4discovery: Enable C++ exceptions.  Now the entire
-      apps/examples/cxxtest works -- meaning the the uClibc++ is
-      complete and verified for the STM32 platform.

+      verified on the STM32F4Discovery platform.  Some tuning of the

+      are also more subject to the "fat, flat line bug" that I need to fix
+      someday.  See http://www.nuttx.org/doku.php?id=wiki:graphics:nxgraphics
+      for a description of the fat, flat line bug.
+    * libc:  Renamed nuttx/lib to nuttx/libc to make space for a true lib/
+      directory that will be forthcoming.  Also rename libraries:  liblib.a -> libc.a,
+      libulib.a -> libuc.a, libklib.a -> libkc.a, liblibxx.a ->libcxx.a.
+      (I will probably, eventually rename libxx to libcxx for consistency)
+    * Makefile, lib/: A new, empty directory that will hold generated libraries.
+      This simplifies the library patch calculations and lets me get rid of some
+      bash logic.  The change is functional, but only partially complete;
+      additional logic is needed in the arch/*/src/Makefile's as well.  Right
+      now that logic generate multiple library paths, all pointing to the lib/
       directory.
-    * Makefile:  Change order of includes when CONFIG_NEWCONFIG=y.  In
-      that case, namedapp must be included first so that the namedapp
-      context is established first.  If the namedapp context is established
-      later, it will overwrite any existing namedapp_list.h and nameapp_proto.h
-      files.
-    * CONFIG_EXAMPLES_*: To make things consistent, changed all occurrences
-      of CONFIG_EXAMPLE_* to CONFIG_EXAMPLES_*.
-    * Kconfig:  Fleshed out apps/examples/adc/Kconfig and apps/examples/wget/Kconfig.
-      There are still a LOT of empty, stub Kconfig files.
-    * Kconfig:  Fleshed out apps/examples/buttons/Kconfig. There are still a LOT
-      of empty, stub Kconfig files.
-    * apps/netutils/webserver/httpd.c:  Fix a bug that I introduced in
-      recent check-ins (Darcy Gong).
-    * apps/netutils/webclient/webclient.c:  Fix another but that I introduced
-      when I was trying to add correct handling for loss of connection (Darcy Gong)

-      DNS address resolution improvements from Darcy Gong.
-    * apps/nshlib/nsh_netcmds.c:  The ping command now passes a maximum round
-      trip time to uip_icmpping().  This allows pinging of hosts on complex
-      networks where the ICMP ECHO round trip time may exceed the ping interval.

-    * COPYING: Licensing information added.
-    * apps/netutils/codec and include/netutils/urldecode.h, base64.h, and md5.h:
-      A port of the BASE46, MD5 and URL CODEC library from Darcy Gong.
-    * nsnlib/nsh_codeccmd.c:  NSH commands to use the CODEC library.
-      Contributed by Darcy Gong.
-    * apps/examples/wgetjson: Test example contributed by Darcy Gong
-    * apps/examples/cxxtest:  A test for the uClibc++ library provided by
-      Qiang Yu and the RGMP team.
-    * apps/netutils/webclient, apps/netutils.codes, and apps/examples/wgetjson:

-    * apps/examples/relays:  A relay example contributed by Darcy Gong.
-    * apps/nshlib/nsh_netcmds: Add ifup and ifdown commands (from Darcy
-      Gong).
-    * apps/nshlib/nsh_netcmds: Extend the ifconfig command so that it
-      supports setting IP addresses, network masks, name server addresses,
-      and hardware address (from Darcy Gong).
+    * arch/*/src/Makefile:  Now uses only the libraries in lib/
+      Replace bash fragments that test for board/Makefile.
+    * Makefile.win:  The beginnings of a Windows-native build.  This is just
+      the beginning and not yet ready for prime time use.
+    * configs/stm32f4discovery/winbuild:  This is a version of the standard
+      NuttX OS test, but configured to build natively on Windows.  Its only
+      real purpose is to very the native Windows build logic.
+    * tools/mkdeps.bat and tools/mkdeps.c:  mkdeps.bat is a failed attempt
+      to leverage mkdeps.sh to CMD.exe.  It fails because the are certain
+      critical CFLAG values that cannot be passed on the CMD.exe command line
+      (like '=').  mkdeps.c is a work in progress that will, hopefully,
+      replace both mkdeps.sh and mkdeps.bat.
+    * tools/Config.mk:  Centralize the definition of the script that will be
+      used to generated header file include paths for the compiler.  This
+      needs to be centralized in order to support the Windows native build.
+    * tools/incdir.bat:  A replacement for tools/incdir.sh for use with the
+      the Windows native build.
+    * Makefile.unix:  The existing top-level Makefile has been renamed
+      Makefile.unix.
+    * Makefile:  This is a new top-level Makefile that just includes
+      either Makefile.unix or Makefile.win

+    * tools/mkromfsimg.sh: Correct typo in an error message (Ryan Sundberg)
+    * arch/*/src/Makefile:  Remove tftboot install and creation of System.map
+      for Windows native build.  The first is a necessary change, the second
+      just needs re-implemented.
+    * configs/mirtoo: Update Mirtoo pin definitions for Release 2.  Provided
+      by Konstantin Dimitrov.
+    * Fixed an uninitialized variable in the file system that can cause 
+      assertions if DEBUG on (contributed by Lorenz Meier).
+    * Config.mk:  Defined DELIM to be either / or \, depending upon
+      CONFIG_WINDOWS_NATIVE.  This will allow me to eliminate a lot of
+      conditional logic elsewhere.
+    * nuttx/graphics: One a mouse button is pressed, continue to report all
+      mouse button events to the first window that received the the initial
+      button down event, even if the mouse attempts to drag outside the
+      window. From Petteri Aimonen.
+    * nuttx/graphics/nxmu/nx_block.c:  One more fix to the NX block message
+      logic from Petteri Aimonen.
+    * include/nuttx/wqueue.h: Some basic definitions to support a user-
+      space work queue (someday in the future).
+    * graphics/nxmu:  Add semaphores so buffers messages that send buffers
+      will block until the buffer data has been acted upon.
+    * graphics/nxmw:  Extended the blocked messages to cover mouse movement
+      and redraw events.  These will also cause problems if sent to a window
+      while it is closing.
+    * arch/several:  Change UARTs are enabled for i.MX, LM3S, ez80, and M16C to
+      match how they are enabled for other architectures.
+    * configs/ez80f910200kitg:  Convert to use mconf configuration.
+    * sched/pause.c:  Implements the POSIX pause() function.
+    * ez80: Lots of changes to ez80 configurations and build logic as I
+      struggle to get a clean Windows build (still not working).
+    * configs/cloudctrl:   Darcy Gong's CloudController board.  This is a
+      small network relay development board. Based on the Shenzhou IV development
+      board design.  It is based on the STM32F107VC MCU.
+    * arch/arm/src/stm32_serial.c and stm32_lowputc.c:  Added optional RS-485
+      direction bit control. From Freddie Chopin.
+    * Lots of build files:  ARMv7-M and MIPS32 Make.defs now include a common
+      Toolchain.defs file that can be used to manage toolchains in a more
+      configurable way.  Contributed by Mike Smith
+    * configs/stm32f4discovery/winbuild and configs/cloudctrl:  Adapted to use
+      Mike's Toolchain.defs.
+    * tools/configure.sh:  Adapted to handle paths and setenv.bat files correctly
+      for native Windows builds.
+    * More of build files:  AVR and AVR32 Make.defs now include a common
+      Toolchain.defs file that can be used to manage toolchains in a more
+      configurable way.  Contributed by Mike Smith
+    * tools/incdir.sh and incdir.bat: Add -s option to generate system header
+      file paths.
+    * nuttx/arch/arm/src/arm/Toolchain.defs: Add support for more ARM toolchains
+      (from Mike Smith).
+    * arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32f40xxx_rcc.c:  Enabled FLASH prefetch (from Petteri
+      Aimonen).
+    * graphics/nxtk/nxtk_filltrapwindow.c:  Correct an offset problem (from
+      Peterri Aimonen).
+    * graphics/nxglib/nxglib_splitline.c:  Fix error in drawing of near horizontal
+      lines (from Peterri Aimonen).
+    * sched/task_exithook.c:  Missing right bracket with certain conditional
+      compilation (thanks James Goppert).
+    * arch/arm/srch/stm32/stm32_otgfshost.c:  Replace timeout handling; use
+      system tick instead of frame counter.  The frame counter gets reset to
+      zero at 0x3fff making it error prone.
+    * arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32f20xx_rcc.c and stm32f40xx_rcc.c: Added option
+      CONFIG_STM32_FLASH_PREFETCH.  FLASH prefetch will now only be enabled
+      if this option is selected.
+    * confgs/ez80f910200zco/ostest:  Now uses Kconfig/mconf configuration
+      tool. Updated to build in native Windows environment.  Other ez80f910200zco
+      build scripts also updated.
+    * configs/z8f64200100kit/ostest: Update to same level as ez80 configurations.
+    * nuttx/configs/z8f64200100kit/scripts/setenv.bat: Add support for native
+      Windows build.
+    * nuttx/arch/arm/src/lpc17xx/lpc17_i2c.c: Resources not being released when
+      I2C is uninitialized.
+    * cloudctrl/src/up_chipid.c and shenzhou/src/up_chipid.c:  Add functions to
+      get chip ID.  Contributed by Darcy Gong.  These should not be board-dependent,
+      but should be in arch/arm/src/stm32 where they can be used from any board.
+    * sched/work_thread.c: Fix backward conditional compilation.  This might
+      has caused a memory leak.  From Freddie Chopin.
+    * configs/<many>/Make.defs:  Fix typo -wstrict-prototypes should be
+      -Wstrict-prototypes (From Denis Carilki).
+    * arch/arm/src/calapyso/calypso_keypad.c:  Add Calypso keypad driver.  From
+      Denis Carilki.
+    * z8encore000zco/ostest and z8f64200100kit/ostest:  Converted to use Kconfig/
+      mconf configuration tool.
+    * arch/arm/src/armv7-m/up_exception.S: missing curly braces for push/pop
+      From Freddie Chopin.
+    * z8encore000zco/ostest and z8f64200100kit/ostest:  Can now be modified to
+      support the Windows native builds (see corresponding README.txt files).
+    * configs/z16f2800100zcog - All configurations updated to use the ZDS-II
+      5.0.1 toolchain.
+    * configs/z16f2800100zcog - All configurations updated to use Kconfig/mconf
+      configuration tools.
+    * configs/z16f2800100zcog/ostest - Now supports a native Windows build
+      (other ZNEO configs may also support the native build, but this has not
+      been verfiied).
+    * include/nuttx/input/keypad.h, arch/arm/src/calypso/calypso_keypad.c, and
+      configs/compal_e99/nsh_highram: First cut at a standard keypad interface
+      definition.  Contributed by Denis Carikli.
+    * libc/stdlib/lib_rand.c:  Always add one to result congruential generators
+      to avoid the value zero.  Suggested by Freddie Chopin.
+    * tools/b16.c:  Fixed precision math conversion utility.
+    * graphics/nxglib/nxglib_splitline.c:  Fix the "fat, flat line bug"
+    * arch/z80/src/*/Toolchain.defs:  Add dummy Toolchain.defs files for the
+      z80 family.
+    * configs/z80sim/ostest:  Converted to build with the Kconfig/mconf tool.
+      Current configuration failed to build for me (Ubuntu 12.10, SDCC 3.2.0
+      pre-built for Linux) due to a glibc memory corruptionerror in SDCC.
+    * configs/z80sim/ostest: Default is now the Windows native build.  See
+      configs/z80sim/README.txt for instructions to convert back to a Linux or
+      or Cygwin build.
+    * arch/z80/src/Makefile.sdccw:  Renamed makefiles with extensions zdiil,
+      zdiiw, sdccl, and sdccw for the ZDS-II vs SDCC compilers and for the
+      POSIX vs Windows native builds.
+    * nuttx/drivers/mtd/ftl.c:  Fix for the flash translation layer. Short
+      unaligned writes were buggy.  From Petteri Aimonen.
+    * nuttx/libc/math/lib_round*.c:  Add rounding functions to the math
+      library.  Contributed by Petteri Aimonen.
+    * include/cxx/cstdlib:  Add stroul().  From Petteri Aimonen.
+    * arch/*/include/limits.h:  Change signed minimum values from, for example,
+      (-128) to (-127 - 1) to avoid overflows under certain conditions.  From
+      Peterri Aimonen.
+    * graphics/nxtk/nxtk_subwindowmove.c: Previously it was very difficult to
+      do e.g. "scroll by dx, dy". When given the full window area, nxtk_subwindowmove
+      would clip the offset always to 0,0. It makes more sense for it to clip the
+      source area and not modify the offset.  From Petteri Aimonen.
+    * graphics/nxtk/nxtk_getwindow.c: Clipping would change the offset of returned
+      data, and caller has no way to know what the new offset would be. This messes
+      up font drawing when the text is partially out of window, e.g. when scrolling.
+      Also from Petteri Aimonen.
+    * include/stdbool.h: Can now be disabled for C++ files if CONFIG_C99_BOOL8 is
+      defined.  CONFIG_C99_BOOL8 indicates (1) that the sizeof(_Bool) is one in both
+      C and C++, and (2) the the C compiler is C99 and supports the _Bool intrinsic
+      type. Requested by Freddie Chopin.
+    * include/stdlib/lib_rand.c:  Various additional changes so that the integer
+      value zero can be returned.  Requested by Freddie Chopin.
+    * arch/z80/src/Makefile.sdcc*, z80/up_mem.h:  Redesign Z80 build so that it
+      no longer depends on Bash scripts.
+    * configs/z80sim/nsh and pashello:  Converted to (1) use the kconfig-frontends
+      configuration tool, and (2) to build natively under Windows.  The NSH
+      configuration is verified; the pashello configuration needs a more TLC.
+    * tools/copydir.sh:  Rename tools/winlink.sh to tools/copydir.sh
+    * tools/link.bat, unlink.bat, and copydir.bat:  Add Windows counterparts
+      to the link.sh, unlink.sh, and copydir.sh Bash scripts.
+    * configs/z80sim/pashello:  Now builds correctly.
+    * configs/xtrs/ostest, nsh, and pashello:  Converted to (1) use the kconfig-
+      frontends configuration tool, and (2) to build natively under Windows.
+    * drivers/serial/Kconfig and sched/Kconfig:  Two names for same configuration:
+      CONFIG_LOWLEVEL_CONSOLE is bogus and CONFIG_DEV_LOWCONSOLE is in the wrong
+      Kconfig file.  Moved to drivers/serial/Kconfig replacing CONFIG_LOWLEVEL_CONSOLE.
+    * arch/z80/include/z180:  Add header files for z180 chips.  Initial versions
+      are just clones of z80 header files.
+    * arch/z80/src/z180:  Add source files for z180 chips.  Initial versions
+      are just clones of z80 source files.
+    * include/nuttx/arch.h:  Add address environment control interfaces (for use
+      with CPUs the provide MCUs and support process-like address environments).
+    * arch/z80/src/z180/z180_mmu.*:  Add MMU support for z180 tasks.
+    * configs/p112:  Add very basic board support and an examples/ostest
+      configuration for the venerable P112 board.
+    * sched/os_bringup.c: If CONFIG_PATH_INITIAL is defined, then the initial
+      environment of the task started by os_bringup() will have the PATH
+      environment variable defined to be that string.
+    * binfmt/binfmt_exepath.c:  If CONFIG_BINFMT_EXEPATH is defined, then this
+      file will be built.  It contains logic to search for regular files at
+      the absolutes paths found in the current PATH environment variable
+      setting.  This is untested and not yet hooked into the binfmt exec()
+      logic on initial check-in
+    * binfmt/binfmt_loadmodule.c: load_module() will now traverse the PATH
+      variable to locate files from their relative path.
+    * include/nuttx/arch.h and arch/z80/src/z180/z180_mmu.c:  Restructure the
+      address environment interfaces so that they will better integrate with
+      binfmt/.
+    * binfmt/libelf/*, binfmt/libnxflat/* and other files:  Integrate the
+      address environment interfaces.  If CONFIG_ADDRENV=y, then binfmt/
+      will now create an address environment for new tasks (instead of
+      just malloc'ing the task memory).
+    * configs/stm32f4discovery/elf:  Enable support/test of the PATH
+      to find executables using a relative path.

+NuttX-6.24
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The 91st release of NuttX, Version 6.24, was made on December 20, 2012,
+and is available for download from the SourceForge website.  Note
+that release consists of two tarballs:  nuttx-6.24.tar.gz and
+apps-6.24.tar.gz.  Both may be needed (see the top-level nuttx/README.txt
+file for build information).
+
+This release corresponds with SVN release number: r5447
+
+Note that all SVN information has been stripped from the tarballs.  If you
+need the SVN configuration information, you should check out directly from
+SVN.  Revision r5447 should equivalent to release 6.24 of NuttX 6.24:

+
+Or (HTTP):
+
+    svn checkout -r5447 http://svn.code.sf.net/p/nuttx/code/trunk nuttx-code
+
+Additional new features and extended functionality:
+
+  * RTOS:
+
+    - Implemented the POSIX pause() function (still has some compiance
+      issues).
+    - Tasking logic is extended to support the notion of address
+      environments.  An address environment is the key notion underlying
+      "process" vs. tasks.  If tasks are created with address environments
+      (by binfmt), the OS will propogate that environment to child threads
+      and will destroy the address environment when the "process" exists.
+    - If support for the PATH variable is enabled, the OS start up logic
+      will create an initial environment containing the default PATH
+      setting (CONFIG_PATH_INITIAL).  This initial PATH will then be
+      inherited by all tasks.
+
+  * Binfmt
+
+    - The NuttX binary loaders have been updated to support the PATH
+      environment variable.  Now, if the PATH is properly defined, programs
+      can be executed from mass storage using only the file name.  This
+      feature is added to support more standard behavior (eventually, NSH
+      will support execution of programs in file systems by just entering
+      the file name, perhaps in 6.25?).
+    - The NXFLAT and ELF binary loaders have been extended to create
+      address environments for any new tasks executed from the file system.
+      This feature requires that the architecture support a memory management
+      unit (MMU) and the address environment interfaces declared in
+      include/nuttx/arch.h (currently, this is only supported by the z180).
+
+    * Drivers: LCD driver for the Univision UG-2864AMBAG01 OLED
+
+    * STM32: Support for STM32F100 high density chips contributed by Freddie
+      Chopin.
+
+    * STM32 Drivers:  Added optional RS-485 direction bit control (from
+      Freddie Chopin).
+
+    * STM32 Boards:
+
+      - Support for generic STM32F100RC board contributed by Freddie Chopin.
+      - stm32f4discovery/nxlines: STM32F4Discovery support for the
+        UG-2864AMBAG01 OLED.
+      - stm32f4discovery/winbuild:  A version of the NuttX OS test
+        configured to build natively on Windows.
+      - stm32f4discovery/elf: Now uses the PATH variable to find ELF
+        executables.
+      - configs/cloudctrl: Added for Darcy Gong's CloudController board
+
+    * PIC32 Boards: Update the Mirtool configuration for Release 2 of the
+      Mirtoo module.
+
+    * Calypso: Add Calypso keypad driver.  From Denis Cariki.
+
+    * ZiLOG:
+
+      - Add support for the z180 chip family and, specifically, for
+        the P112 retro hardware (see http://p112.feedle.net/).
+      - All ZiLOG configurations updated to use the current ZDS-II
+        and/or SDCC toolchains.
+
+    * Graphics:
+
+      - Add a semaphore handshake so that operations on buffers from
+        the NXMU client will be blocked until the NX server operates on the
+        buffer data (from Petteri Aimonen).
+      - nxtk_subwindowmove() and nxtk_getwindow(): Improvements to clipping
+        logic from Petteri Aimonen.
+
+    * C Library: lib/ sub-directory renamed libc/ (there is a new lib/ sub-
+      directory that is used to hold all archives).
+
+    * C++: Exception stubs from Petteri Aimonen.
+
+    * Applications:
+
+      - Add NSH hexdump command to dump the contents of a file (or character
+        device) to the console (contributed by Petteri Aimonen).
+      - Extend the NSH ifconfig command plus various DHCPC improvements
+        (from Darcy Gong).
+
+    * apps/examples:
+
+      - ostest: Replace large tables with algorithmic prime number
+        generation.  This allows the roundrobin test to run on platforms
+        with minimal SRAM (Freddie Chopin).
+      - keypadtest:  A new keypad test example contributed by Denis Carikli.
+      - elf and nxflat:  If CONFIG_BINFMT_EXEPATH is defined, these examples
+        will now use a relative path to the program and expect the binfmt/
+        logic to find the absolute path to the program using the PATH
+        variable.
+
+    * Build system:
+
+      - New top-level Makefiles: Makefile.unix and Makefile.win (along with
+        numerous changes to other make-related files).  This adds basic
+        support for building NuttX natively under Windows from a CMD.exe
+        window (rather than in a POSIX-like environment). This build: (1)
+        Uses all Windows style paths, (2) Uses primarily Windows batch
+        commands from cmd.exe, with (3) a few extensions from GNUWin32.
+
+        This capability should still be considered a work in progress
+        because: (1) it has not been verfied on all targets and tools,
+        and (2) still lacks some of the creature-comforts of the more
+        mature environments (like a function configure.sh script and
+        'make menuconfig' support).
+
+      - Example Windows native builds for STM32F4Discovery, eZ80, z16f, z8,
+        Z80, and Z180.
+      - Several configurations have been converted to work the kconfig-
+        frontends mconf configuration tool: stm32f4discovery/nxlines, and
+        all eZ80, z16f, z8, Z80, and Z180 configurations.
+      - Architectures now include a common Toolchain.defs file that can be
+        used to manage toolchains in a more configurable way (most of this
+        contributed by Mike Smith).
+
+    * Build tools: 
+
+      - Renamed tools/winlink.sh to tools/copydir.sh.
+      - Several new tools/scripts to support the Windows native build:
+        tools/mkdeps.bat, tools/mkdeps.c, tools/link.bat, unlink.bat, and
+        copydir.bat.
+      - tools/incdir.sh and incdir.bat now support an -s option to generate
+        system header file paths.
+      - tools/b16.c: Fixed precision math conversion utility.
+
+Bugfixes (see the change log for details).  Some of these are very important
+(marked *critical*):
+
+    * RTOS: Fix some backward conditional compilation in the work queue
+      logic (Freddie Chopin).
+
+    * File System: Uninitialized variable caused assertions (from Lorenz
+      Meier).
+
+    * Drivers: Partial fix for STM32 OTGFS device drivers and fix for short,
+      unaligned writes in the flash translation layer (drivers/mtd/ftl.c),
+      both from Petteri Aimonen.
+
+    * STM32 Drivers:
+
+      - Qencoder driver and TIM3 driver fixes from Ryan Sundberg.
+      - Fix timeout delay calculation in the STM32 OTG FS host driver.
+
+    * LPC17xx Drivers:  Resources not being properly released when I2C
+      driver is un-initialized.
+
+    * Graphics:
+
+      - Fix logic when the mouse drags outside of the window; fix
+        another "blocked message" handling case (both from Petteri Aimonen).
+      - nxtk_filltrapwindow():  Correct an offset problem (also from Peterri
+        Aimonen).
+      - nxglib_splitline():  Correct the "fat flat line" bug.
+
+    * C Library:
+
+      - nrand() changes to prevent coefficients from becoming zero which
+        would "lock up" the random number generate.
+      - Add rounding functions to the math library (contributed by Petteri
+        Aimonen).
+
+    * Build system:  Changes to MIN definitions in all limit.h header files
+      to avoid integer overflows.  For example from (-128) to (-127 - 1)
+      (from Petteri Aimonen).
+
+    * Applications: Modbus fixes from Freddie Chopin.
