2011.02, Not yet released:
+ 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).
+
+ 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.
+
+ 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/.
+
Ccache support reworked. Now used for both host and target
compilation, and cache is stored in ~/.buildroot-ccache.
- Toolchain: uClibc 0.9.32-rc1, several components moved to
+ 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.
EXT2 file system size handling improved, UBI image support, fs
configuration options cleanup, U-Boot/Barebox version bumps.
