+    Version 0.8 offers a major upgrade in the AltosUI
+    interface. Significant new features include:
+  </para>
+  <itemizedlist>
+    <listitem>
+      Post-flight graphing tool. This lets you explore the behaviour
+      of your rocket after flight with a scroll-able and zoom-able
+      chart showing the altitude, speed and acceleration of the
+      airframe along with events recorded by the flight computer. You
+      can export graphs to PNG files, or print them directly.
+    </listitem>
+    <listitem>
+      Real-time moving map which overlays the in-progress flight on
+      satellite imagery fetched from Google Maps. This lets you see in
+      pictures where your rocket has landed, allowing you to plan
+      recovery activities more accurately.
+    </listitem>
+    <listitem>
+      Wireless recovery system testing. Prep your rocket for flight
+      and test fire the deployment charges to make sure things work as
+      expected. All without threading wires through holes in your
+      airframe.
+    </listitem>
+    <listitem>
+      Optimized flight status displays. Each flight state now has it's
+      own custom 'tab' in the flight monitoring window so you can
+      focus on the most important details. Pre-flight, the system
+      shows a set of red/green status indicators for battery voltage,
+      apogee/main igniter continutity and GPS reception. Wait until
+      they're all green and your rocket is ready for flight. There are
+      also tabs for ascent, descent and landing along with the
+      original tabular view of the data.
+    </listitem>
+    <listitem>
+      Monitor multiple flights simultaneously. If you have more than
+      one TeleDongle, you can monitor a flight with each one on the
+      same computer.
+    </listitem>
+    <listitem>
+      Automatic flight monitoring at startup. Plug TeleDongle into the
+      machine before starting AltosUI and it will automatically
+      connect to it and prepare to monitor a flight.
+    </listitem>
+    <listitem>
+      Exports Google Earth flight tracks. Using the Keyhole Markup
+      Language (.kml) file format, this provides a 3D view of your
+      rocket flight through the Google Earth program.
