+= Release Notes for Version 1.0.1
+:toc!:
+:doctype: article
+
+	Version 1.0.1 is a major release, adding support for the
+	TeleMini device and lots of new AltosUI features
+  
+	== AltOS
+
+		AltOS New Features
+
+		* Add TeleMini v1.0 support.
+
+		* Support operation of TeleMetrum with the antenna pointing
+		  aft. Previous firmware versions required the antenna to be
+		  pointing upwards, now there is a configuration option
+		  allowing the antenna to point aft, to aid installation in
+		  some airframes.
+
+		* Ability to disable telemetry. For airframes where an antenna
+		  just isn't possible, or where radio transmissions might
+		  cause trouble with other electronics, there's a
+		  configuration option to disable all telemetry. Note that the
+		  board will still enable the radio link in idle mode.
+
+		* Arbitrary frequency selection. The radios in Altus Metrum
+		  devices can be programmed to a wide range of frequencies, so
+		  instead of limiting devices to 10 pre-selected 'channels',
+		  the new firmware allows the user to choose any frequency in
+		  the 70cm band. Note that the RF matching circuit on the
+		  boards is tuned for around 435MHz, so frequencies far from
+		  that may reduce the available range.
+
+
+		AltOS Fixes
+
+		* Change telemetry to be encoded in multiple 32-byte
+		  packets. This enables support for TeleMini and other devices
+		  without requiring further updates to the TeleDongle
+		  firmware.
+
+		* Kalman-filter based flight-tracking. The model based sensor
+		  fusion approach of a Kalman filter means that AltOS now
+		  computes apogee much more accurately than before, generally
+		  within a fraction of a second. In addition, this approach
+		  allows the baro-only TeleMini device to correctly identify
+		  Mach transitions, avoiding the error-prone selection of a
+		  Mach delay.
+
+  
+	== AltosUI Application
+
+		AltosUI New Features
+
+		* Add main/apogee voltage graphs to the data
+		  plot. This provides a visual indication if the
+		  igniters fail before being fired.
+      
+		* Scan for altimeter devices by watching the defined
+		  telemetry frequencies. This avoids the problem of
+		  remembering what frequency a device was configured
+		  to use, which is especially important with TeleMini
+		  which does not include a USB connection.
+
+		 * Monitor altimeter state in "Idle" mode. This
+		   provides much of the information presented in the
+		   "Pad" dialog from the Monitor Flight command,
+		   monitoring the igniters, battery and GPS status
+		   withing requiring the flight computer to be armed
+		   and ready for flight.
+
+
+		 * Pre-load map images from home. For those launch
+		   sites which don't provide free Wi-Fi, this allows
+		   you to download the necessary satellite images
+		   given the location of the launch site. A list of
+		   known launch sites is maintained at altusmetrum.org
+		   which AltosUI downloads to populate a menu; if
+		   you've got a launch site not on that list, please
+		   send the name of it, latitude and longitude along
+		   with a link to the web site of the controlling club
+		   to the altusmetrum mailing list.
+
+		 * Flight statistics are now displayed in the Graph
+		   data window. These include max height/speed/accel,
+		   average descent rates and a few other bits of
+		   information. The Graph Data window can now be
+		   reached from the 'Landed' tab in the Monitor Flight
+		   window so you can immediately see the results of a
+		   flight.
+
+		AltosUI Changes
+
+		* Wait for altimeter when using packet mode. Instead
+		  of quicly timing out when trying to initialize a
+		  packet mode configuration connection, AltosUI now
+		  waits indefinitely for the remote device to appear,
+		  providing a cancel button should the user get
+		  bored. This is necessary as the TeleMini can only be
+		  placed in "Idle" mode if AltosUI is polling it.
