+Changes in 0.3 Beta:
  * Many MAC/PHY bug fixes (fixes previous known issues as well as other bugs)
- * Adds 16-QAM rates (24Mbps and 36Mbps)
- * Replaced Ethernet FIFO receptions with DMA for a big speed up
- * Completely redesigned wireless transmit queue greatly improves bursty Ethernet receptions
+  * Resolved rare deadlock in Rx PHY
+  * Updated LTS correlator (fixed offset-by-1 bug, increased dynamic range of stored coefficients)
+ * Added 16-QAM rates to PHY Tx and Rx (24Mbps and 36Mbps)
+ * Re-designed Ethernet I/O to use scatter-gather DMA (replaces Ethernet FIFO)
+ * Completely redesigned wireless transmit queue
+  * Much better handling of bursty Ethernet receptions
   * Ties into Ethernet DMA for zero-copy Ethernet payloads to placed directly in queue
-  * Allows per-station queueing
-  * Uses DRAM SODIMM if it is present on the board for a very large queue (up to 3000 packets)
- * New UI for changing AP parameters over UART. From a UART terminal, press "Esc" to show the menu of options.
+  * Per-associated-station queueing of MPDUs awaiting transmission
+  * Uses DDR3 SO-DIMM (if present) for large queues (up to 3000 packets)
+ * Added UI for changing AP parameters over UART (after downloading design press Esc key to see menu)
