+				<li>Only build 2 GRUB payload executables, re-use on all boards.</li>
 				<li>
-					Documentation: configuring_parabola.html: basic post-install steps for Parabola GNU/Linux 
-					(helpful, since libreboot development is being moved to Parabola at the time of writing).
+					resources/utilities/grub-assemble/gen.txtmode.sh: Use GNU BASH<br/>
+					resources/utilities/grub-assemble/gen.vesafb.sh: Use GNU BASH

-				<li>builddeps-coreboot: use 'make crossgcc-i386' instead of 'make crossgcc'. Libreboot only targets x86 at the time of writing.</li>

+					Move most files in CBFS to GRUB memdisk, except grub.cfg and grubtest.cfg
+					<ul>

+				<li>Documentation: major cleanup (better structure, easier to find things)</li>
+				<li>
+					docs/release.html: Remove Acer CB5 from list of future candidates.
+					<ul>
+						<li>
+							Too many issues. Chromebooks are crippled (soldered RAM/storage/wifi)
+							and have too many usability issues for the libreboot project.
+						</li>
+					</ul>
+				</li>
+				<li>docs/gnulinux/grub_cbfs.html Major cleanup. Usability improvements.</li>
+				<li>hocs/gnulinux/encrypted_trisquel.html: Fixed mistakes/typo's. General improvements</li>
+				<li>
+					flash (flashrom script): remove boardmismatch=force
+					<ul>
+						<li>
+							 This was put there before for users upgrading from libreboot r5
+							 to r6, but also allows the user to flash the wrong image. For
+							 example, the user could flash a T60 image on an X60, thus
+							 bricking the machine. It's almost certain that most people
+							 have upgraded by now, so remove this potentially dangerous
+							 option.
+						</li>
+					</ul>
+				</li>
+				<li>Documentation: update compatibility list for X60T LCD panels.</li>
+				<li>docs/release.html: add note about X60 Tablet board in X60/X60s</li>
+				<li>docs/howtos/grub_boot_installer.html: small corrections</li>
+				<li>docs/howtos/grub_boot_installer.html: improved readability, fixed html errors</li>
