The Linaro Toolchain Working Group is pleased to announce the release
of Linaro QEMU 2011.02-0.

Linaro QEMU 2011.02-0 is the first official release of qemu-linaro. Based
off upstream qemu, it includes a number of ARM-focused bug fixes and
enhancements.

 - This initial qemu-linaro release includes all the ARM code generation
   fixes from the qemu-meego tree; these are mainly Neon related
 - The OMAP3 support from qemu-meego is also included
 - Various bugs which prevented newer Linaro snapshots from booting
   on the beagle model have been fixed
 - Bugs causing linaro-media-create to print warnings about unimplemented
   syscalls and ioctls have been fixed

Known issues:
 - There is no support for USB keyboard or mouse, so only a serial console
   is usable (#708703)
 - Images built with linaro-media-create's --swap_file option will not
   boot (#713101)
