+= Release Notes for Version 1.1
+:toc!:
+:doctype: article
+
+ Version 1.1 is a minor release. It provides a few new features
+ in AltosUI and the AltOS firmware and fixes bugs.
+
+ == AltOS
+
+ AltOS Firmware New Features:
+
+ * Add apogee-lockout value. Overrides the apogee
+ detection logic to prevent incorrect apogee charge
+ firing.
+
+ * Force the radio frequency to 434.550MHz when the
+ debug clock pin is connected to ground at boot
+ time. This provides a way to talk to a TeleMini
+ which is configured to some unknown frequency.
+
+ * Provide RSSI values for Monitor Idle mode. This
+ makes it easy to check radio range without needing
+ to go to flight mode.
+
+ AltOS Fixes:
+
+ * Fix a bug where the data reported in telemetry
+ packets was from 320ms ago.
+
+ * Fix a bug which caused the old received telemetry
+ packets to be retransmitted over the USB link when
+ the radio was turned off and back on.
+
+ == AltosUI
+
+ AltosUI New Features:
+
+ * Make the look-n-feel configurable, providing a choice from
+ the available options.
+
+ * Add an 'Age' element to mark how long since a
+ telemetry packet has been received. Useful to
+ quickly gauge whether communications with the rocket
+ are still active.
+
+ * Add 'Configure Ground Station' dialog to set the
+ radio frequency used by a particular TeleDongle
+ without having to go through the flight monitor UI.
+
+ * Add configuration for the new apogee-lockout
+ value. A menu provides a list of reasonable values,
+ or the value can be set by hand.
+
+ * Add Imperial units mode to present data in feet
+ instead of meters.
+
+ AltosUI Fixes:
+
+ * Fix a bug that caused GPS ready to happen too
+ quickly. The software was using every telemetry
+ packet to signal new GPS data, which caused GPS
+ ready to be signalled after 10 packets instead of 10
+ GPS updates.
+
+ * Fix Google Earth data export to work with recent
+ versions. The google earth file loading code got a
+ lot pickier, requiring some minor white space
+ changes in the export code.
+
+ * Changed how flight data are downloaded. Now there's
+ an initial dialog asking which flights to download,
+ and after that finishes, a second dialog comes up
+ asking which flights to delete.
+
+ * Re-compute time spent in each state for the flight
+ graph; this figures out the actual boost and landing
+ times instead of using the conservative values
+ provide by the flight electronics. This improves the
+ accuracy of the boost acceleration and main descent
+ rate computations.
+
+ * Make AltosUI run on Mac OS Lion. The default Java
+ heap space was dramatically reduced for this release
+ causing much of the UI to fail randomly. This most
+ often affected the satellite mapping download and
+ displays.
+
+ * Change how data are displayed in the 'table' tab of
+ the flight monitoring window. This eliminates
+ entries duplicated from the header and adds both
+ current altitude and pad altitude, which are useful
+ in 'Monitor Idle' mode.
