+= Release Notes for Version 1.5
+:toc!:
+
+	Version 1.5 is a major release. It includes support for our new
+	EasyMega product, new features and bug fixes in in the flight
+	software for all our boards and the AltosUI ground station
+
+	== AltOS
+
+	AltOS New Features
+
+	* Add support for EasyMega boards.
+
+	* Make the APRS SSID be configurable. This lets you track
+	  different rockets on the same receiver without getting
+	  things mixed up.
+
+	* Report extra pyro channel continuity state on EasyMega and
+	  TeleMega via the beeper. This lets you easily verify flight
+	  readiness on these boards after powering up the electronics
+	  on the rail.
+
+	* Add lower telemetry data rates (2400 and 9600 bps) to
+	  increase telemetry radio range. This reduces the amount of
+	  data received as well as increasing battery consumption in
+	  the transmitter.
+
+	* Change TeleGPS to have only a single log, and append new
+	  data to it rather than using seperate per-flight logs. This
+	  avoids accidentally filling up log storage by turning
+	  TeleGPS on/off several times.
+
+	AltOS Fixes
+
+	* Increase the maximum range for altitude values from +/-32767m
+	  to +/-2147483647m, allowing the flight computers to function
+	  correctly above the 32km level.
+
+	* Continuously test pyro firing conditions during delay stage,
+	  inhibiting the pyro channel if the test fails. This prevents
+	  firing pyro charges where the conditions were good before
+	  the delay, but become bad before the delay expires.
+
+	* Allow negative numbers in pyro configuration values. This
+	  lets you specify things like descending speed or
+	  deceleration.
+
+	== AltosUI and TeleGPS Applications
+
+	AltosUI and TeleGPS New Features
+
+	* Support telemetry baud rate selection. Adds menus to
+	  the flight monitoring and configuration for baud rate
+	  selection.
+
+	* Support APRS SSID configuration.
+
+	* Integrate with file managers. This provides icons for all of
+	  our file types and associates our application with the files
+	  so that using a file manager to open a AltOS data file
+	  results in launching our application.
+
+	AltosUI Fixes
+
+	* Make the 'Graph' button on the landed tab work again.
+
+	* Make tests for Java on Windows a bit smarter, and also
+	  provide the user with the option to skip installing Java for
+	  cases where we just can't figure out what version is installed.
