Unfotunately we haven't updated our wiki
page<http://wiki.elphel.com/index.php?title=Release_notes>for quite a
while.
You can track some commits at
http://www3.elphel.com/aggregator/sources/2?page=1 and on the
sf.net<http://sourceforge.net/projects/elphel/>
.
Some of the changes are related to:
* GPS/IMU event logger
* UDMA
* recorder program
* new sensor's temperature reading (new parameters)
Best regards,
Oleg
