 JTAG Layer:
-       Support KT-Link JTAG adapter.
+       New driver for "Bus Pirate"
+       Rename various commands so they're not JTAG-specific
+          There are migration procedures for these, but you should
+          convert your scripts to the new names, since those procedures
+          will not be around forever.
+               jtag_khz        ... is now adapter_khz
+               jtag_nsrst_delay ... is now adapter_nsrst_delay
+               jtag_nsrst_assert_width ... is now adapter_nsrst_assert_width

-               - "arm regs" command output changed
-               - register names use "sp" not "r13"
-       ARM11
-               - Preliminary ETM and ETB hookup
-               - accelerated "flash erase_check"

 Flash Layer:
-       'flash bank' and 'nand device' take <bank_name> as first argument.
-       With this, flash/NAND commands allow referencing banks by name:
-               - <bank_name>: reference the bank with its defined name
-               - <driver_name>[.N]: reference the driver's Nth bank
-       New 'nand verify' command to check bank against an image file.
+       New "stellaris recover" command, implements the procedure
+               to recover locked devices (restoring non-volatile
+               state to the factory defaults, including erasing
+               the flash and its protection bits, and possibly
+               re-enabling hardware debugging).
+
 
 Board, Target, and Interface Configuration Scripts:
-       ARM9
-               - ETM and ETB hookup for iMX2* targets
-       Add $HOME/.openocd to the search path.

 Core Jim/TCL Scripting:
-       New 'usage' command to provide terse command help.
-       Improved command 'help' command output (sorted and indented).
-       Improved command handling:
-               - Most boolean settings now accept any of the following:
-                 on/off, enable/disable, true/false, yes/no, 1/0
-               - More error checking and reporting.
