 Changes since 1.5.1:
 
-* Introduced --enable-sii-assign to switch on assigning the SII to PDI and
-  back to EtherCAT during configuration.
+* API extensions (find the complete description in include/ecrt.h)
+    * Added redundancy features; enable using --with-devices.
+    * Re-designed and seamlessly integrated RTDM interface.
+    * Added ecrt_sdo_request_index() method to change index and subindex.
+    * Changed the data types of the shift times in ecrt_slave_config_dc()
+      to int32_t to correctly display negative shift times.
+    * Added API for querying CoE emergency requests.
+    * Added interface to read/write register contents; re-worked register
+      requests.
+    * Added interface to select the reference clock and to sync to it.
+    * Exported ecrt_domain_size() to userspace.
+    * Added ecrt_slave_config_reg_so_entry_pos() to register non-unique
+      PDO entries.
+* Ethernet drivers
+    * Fixes regarding 8139too driver for 2.6.36, 3.4.
+    * Added r8169 driver for 2.6.36 (J. Kunz), 3.2 (J. Kunz), 3.4 (F. Pose).
+    * Added e1000 driver for 3.0, 3.4.
+    * Added e1000e driver for 3.2 (J. Kunz), 3.4 (F. Pose).
+    * Added e100 driver for 3.0, 3.4.
+    * Some fixes for all e1000 and e1000e drivers.
+* General behaviour
+    * Avoided semaphore locking from userspace/rtdm library: Implemented
+      datagram ring instead of queue.
+    * Assign SII to PDI during PREOP transition; Introduced
+      --enable-sii-assign to switch this on.
+    * Avoided re-allocating memory in userspace library implementations of
+      ecrt_sdo_request_state() and in VoE handlers.
+    * Send sync datagrams only if reference clock is found.
+    * Adjusted some DC clock discipline parameters.
+    * Fixed AL status code lookup.
+    * Fixed some ioctl() return values and permissions.
+    * Fixed FoE data OpCode, thanks to R. Roesch.
+    * Fixed and improved cancelling requests when clearing configuration.
+    * Using common wait queue for requests.
+    * Removed some unnecessary request types.
+    * Output slave FSM datagram statistics.
+    * Removed some state-dependent datagram skip messages.
+    * Immediately restart slave FSM on several failed requests.
+    * Reset master state machine when going to orphaned phase.
+* Command-line tool:
+    * Show complete access flag in config view.
+    * Added EtherLab skin for 'ethercat pdos' command.
+    * Fixed 'String too large' bug.
+* Infrastructure:
+    * Added AM_PROG_AR necessary for autoconf 1.12.
+    * Avoided use of AM_CFLAGS, which is not used in some situations.
+    * Added vmalloc() include fix for ARM architecture, thanks to Andrea
+      Scian.
+    * Install ethercat service to multi-user target by default.
+    * Fixed COPYING.LESSER to be LGPL 2.1 (like in file headers).
+    * More detailed output of configure script.
+    * Added rtai_rtdm_dc example, thanks to Graeme Foot.
