2012.08-rc1, Released August 1st, 2012

	Fixes all over the tree and new features.

	Integration of a legal information reporting infrastructure,
	which allows to generate detailed informations about the
	licenses and source code of all components of a system
	generated by Buildroot. License information will progressively
	be added on packages.

	Default configuration files added for Calao-systems USB-A9263
	and Calao-systems USB-A9G20-LPW.

	External toolchains update: allow download of a custom
	toolchain, add Linaro 2012.05 and 2012.06 for ARM, add
	Blackfin toolchain 2012R1-BETA1, add Sourcery CodeBench MIPS
	2011.09.

	Allow the restriction of downloads to the primary site only.
        This is useful for project developers who want to ensure that
        the project can be built even if the upstream tarball
        locations disappear.

	Add a 'System configuration' choice to select between 3
	different init systems: Busybox init, SysV init and Systemd
	init.

	Cleanups to the package infrastructure. The visible change to
	developers is that $(eval $(call AUTOTARGETS)) is now $(eval
	$(autotools-package)), and similarly for other package
	infrastructures and host packages. Refer to the documentation
	for details.

	By default, automatic detection of the number of compilation
	jobs to use, depending on the number of CPUs available.

	Improvements to generate systems with static libraries only
	(infrastructure and package fixes).

	Add proper support in the Linux kernel package to generate
	Device Tree Blobs or combined Device Tree / Kernel
	images. This will be useful on Microblaze, PowerPC and ARM,
	which are architectures making extensive use of the Device
	Tree.

2011.05-rc1, Released May 18th, 2011:

	Fixes all over the tree and new features.

	External toolchain improvements: We now build a binary
	toolchain wrapper and install it into HOST_DIR/usr/bin, which
	enforces the correct compiler arguments, making an external
	toolchain as easy to use outside of Buildroot as the internal
	ones are. This also brought a cleanup of CFLAGS, making the
	Buildroot build output easier to read.

	Rootfs device handling improvements: Choice between static
	/dev, devtmpfs and devtmpfs with either mdev or udev.

	Toolchain: More preconfigured codesourcery external
	toolchains, improved Crosstool-NG support, fix for GCC
	snapshot versions, GCC 4.4.6 / 4.5.3, experimental GCC 4.6.0
	support, target-GCC fixes, uClibc fixes, 0.9.32-rc3 support.

	Bootloaders: U-boot 2011.03, Barebox 2011.05.0

	Linux: support for custom kernel image targets, E.G. for
	powerpc builds with embedded device trees.

	terminal setup out of the box.

	Misc gentarget / autotools handling fixes.

2011.02-rc1, Released February 14th, 2011:

	Fixes all over the tree and new features.

	External toolchain improvements: clarification of the options,
	and introduction of the toolchain profile concept, for
	well-known toolchains. Buildroot is now capable of
	automatically downloading and extracting well-known toolchains
	(for the moment, CodeSourcery ARM, PowerPC, MIPS and SuperH
	toolchains are supported). Crosstool-NG backend updated and
	improved.

	Complete rework of how hardware boards are supported.
	Each board now only has a single defconfig file, and all
	board-specific options have been removed. See
	docs/buildroot.html#board_support for details.

	Added support for the following boards: Mini2440, Qemu ARM
	Versatile, Qemu MIPSel Malta, Qemu PowerPC G3beige, Qemu SH4
	r2d and Qemu x86. The Qemu boards support allows to easily
	build systems that are known to work under Qemu.

	Initial support for Blackfin processors.

	Staging directory moved into $(O)/host/usr/<tuple>/sysroot, in
	preparation for support of SDK. For the same reason, the
	toolchain binaries (cross-compiler and other related tools)
	are now installed in $(O)/host/usr/bin/. The cross pkg-config
	now also automatically returns correct values for cross
	compilation, without needing any environment variables to be
	set.

	Ccache support reworked. Now used for both host and target
	compilation, and cache is stored in ~/.buildroot-ccache.

	Toolchain: uClibc 0.9.32-rc2, several components moved to
	normal AUTOTARGET packages.

	Generic cmake infrastructure, similar to the existing
	GENTARGETS/AUTOTARGETS.

	Support for bzr downloads, next to the existing git/svn support.

	Kconfig infrastructure rebased against 2.6.38-rc3, bringing
	misc fixes. 'xconfig' now uses Qt4 rather than Qt3.

	EXT2 file system size handling improved, UBI image support, fs
	configuration options cleanup, U-Boot/Barebox version bumps.
