+nuttx-5.15
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The 62nd release of NuttX, nuttx-5.15, was mad on December 12, 2010. This
+release includes several bugfixes as well as feature enhancements, primarily
+for the Olimex LPC1766-STK board.
+
+Important bugfxes included:
+
+ * Additional fixes needed with the TCP sequence number problem "fixed" in
+ nuttx-5.14.
+ * In the send() logic, now checks if the destination IP address is in the
+ ARP table before sending the packet; an ARP request will go out instead.
+ This improves behavior, for example, on the first on the first GET request
+ from a browser
+ * All USB class drivers need to call DEV_CONNECT() when they are ready to
+ be enumerated. That is, (1) initially when bound to the USB driver, and
+ (2) after a USB reset.
+ * The SPI_SETBITS macro was calling the SPI setmode method.
+ * And several other bug fixes of lower criticality (see the ChangeLog for
+ details).
+
+And feature enhancements:
+
+ * The LPC176x Ethernet driver was using all of AHB SRAM Bank0 for Ethernet
+ packet buffers (16Kb). An option was added to limit the amount of SRAM
+ used for packet buffering and to re-use any extra Bank0 memory for heap.
+ * Enabled networking and SD/MMC card support in the Olimex LPC1766-STK
+ NuttShell (NSH) configuration.
+ * The LPC176x USB driver is now fully fully functional.
+ * Added an optional cmddata() method to the SPI interface. Some devices
+ require an additional out-of-band bit to specify if the next word sent
+ to the device is a command or data. The cmddata method provides selection
+ of command or data.
+ * A driver for the Nokia 6100 LCD (with either the Phillips PCF8833 LCD
+ controller and for the Epson S1D15G10 LCD controller) and an NX graphics
+ configuration for the Olimex LPC1766-STK have been added. However,
+ neither the LCD driver nor the NX configuration have been verified
+ as of the this release.
