-	* arch/arm/src/stm32 and configs/stm3210e-eval.  Added basic support for the
-	  STMicro STM32, Cortex-M3 MCU.  The specific port is to the STMicro STM3210E-EVAL
-	  development board based around the STM32F103ZET6 MCU.
-	* configs/stm3210e-eval/RIDE.  Added a basic STMicro RIDE7 project that can be
-	  used to perform basic STM32 board bring-up (due to RIDE7 size limitations, it
-	  cannot be used for the full NuttX bring-up).
-	* configs/stm3210e-eval/ostest.  The STM32 now passes the basic NuttX OS test
-	  at examples/ostest.  The rest should be a piece of cake.
-	* configs/stm3210e-eval/nsh.  Added NuttShell (NSH) example.
-	* configs/stm3210e-eval/src/stm32102e-internal.h.  Fix on-board LED GPIO definitions.
-	* arch/arm/src/stm32/src/stm32/stm32_dma.c.  Added DMA channel support for the STM32
-	* arch/arm/src/stm32/src/stm32/stm32_spi.c.  Added a DMA-based SPI driver for the STM32.
-	* arch/arm/src/stm32/src/stm32/stm32_serial.c.  Finished interrupt-drivent,
-	  USART console driver.  This makes NSH work perfectly.
-	* Things left to do for the STM32 deferred to the 0.4.13 release:  USB device driver,
-	  LCD driver and NX bringup on the eval board's display and MicroSD support.  An SPI
-	  driver was included in the 0.4.12 release, but is not yet tested.
+	* include/nuttx/mtd.h.  Added a simple interface definition to support some
+	  FLASH, EEPROM, NVRAM, etc. devices.
+	* driver/mtd/m25px.c.  Added a driver for SPI based FLASH parts M25P64 and M25P128.
+	* configs/stm3210e-eval/usbserial.  Add a USB serial configuration for the STM32.
+	  Depends on the STM32 USB driver.
+	* arch/arm/src/cortexm3/up_switchcontext.S & up_svccall.c.  Made an improvement
+	  to context switching.  There are two types of context switches:  interrupt
+	  context switches and background/user context switches.  This change should
+	  improve the performance of those background/user context switches by a factor
+	  of about two.
+	* arch/arm/src/stm32/ - fix several typos in the serial logic.  It turns out
+	  that these typose don't make any difference as long as you use only one
+	  serial port and all uarts are configured the same.  But the typos are bugs
+	  waiting to happen in any other configuration.
+	* arch/arm/src/stm32/ - You have to configure CTS/RTS function pins for USART
+	  2 and USART 3 even if you are not using flow control.
+	* arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_usbdev.c - Added a USB device-side driver for the
+	  STM32.  NOTE: This is an early release of the USB driver.  There is at least
+	  one known issue. The examples/usbserial test only executes correctly under
+	  certain conditions (see the full bug description in the TODO list).
+	* arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_rcc.c - Fixed an error in clock initialization.
+	  On some boards (none of mine), the HSE (high speed external clock) delay
+	  loop times out if the optimization level is high. The STM32 then falls
+	  back to the HSI (internal clock), and the system clock is too slow by a
+	  factor of 11.1%.  This was fixed by simply add the volatile storage class
+	  to the timeout loop counter
+	* arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_irq.c - Fixed a critical bug in the interrupt
+	  control logic.  The wrong register was being used for interrupts in a
+	  certain range.  Worked fine until you try to use an interrupt in that
+	  range!

-  Description  USB device-side driver
+  Description  A USB device-side driver is in place but not well tested.  At
+               present, the examples/usbserial test sometimes fails.  The situation
+               that causes the failure is:
+

+                 first serial message.
+
+               The general failure is as follows:
+
+               - The target message pends in the endpoint packet memory
+               - When the host-side of the test is stated, it correctly
+                 reads this pending data.
+               - an EP correct transfer interrupt occurs and the next
+                 pending outgoing message is setup
+               - But, the host never receives the next message
+
+               If the host-side driver is started before the first target message
+               is sent, the driver works fine.
