-2011.02, Not yet released:
+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.
+
+ Misc fixes for qemu defconfigs, ensuring correct serial
+ terminal setup out of the box.
+
+ Misc gentarget / autotools handling fixes.
